How to make it keto
Crucially, specify 'sin papa' (without potato) to avoid it becoming a carb-heavy Spanish Tortilla. Confirm no sugar in the ham if possible, though trace amounts are often negligible.
Watch out for
Ham can sometimes contain trace amounts of sugar. The primary risk is the inclusion of potato, transforming it into a non-keto dish.
