How to make it keto
Crucially, ensure the fish is NOT breaded or floured before frying. Confirm the seafood stuffing does not contain any starchy fillers or sugary sauces. Request frying in keto-friendly oil (e.g., olive oil if pan-fried, but restaurant deep-frying often uses vegetable oil, so this is a risk).
Watch out for
Breading on the fish, starchy fillers in the seafood stuffing, vegetable oil used for deep frying, sugary marinades for seafood.
