Corviche Keto (de Coliflor y Pescado)
Keto Fish and Cauliflower Fritters
Yes, with a tweak: replaces green plantain with riced cauliflower. About 10g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A traditional coastal Ecuadorian fritter, re-imagined for keto. Instead of green plantain, this version uses riced cauliflower mixed with shredded fish (often albacore or tuna), seasoned with local herbs, formed into an oval, and lightly fried or baked. Served with a side of 'curtido' (pickled red onion and tomato).
Key ingredients
Cauliflower rice, shredded albacore tuna or other firm white fish, achiote oil, red onion, garlic, ground cumin, fresh cilantro, egg (for binding), almond flour (for coating), coconut oil or lard for frying, lime juice, tomato for curtido.
How to make it keto
Replaces green plantain with riced cauliflower. Uses almond flour instead of traditional flour for binding and coating. Ensures no added sugar in the curtido.
Watch out for
Restaurant might use regular flour or breadcrumbs for binding, high-carb cooking oils, or add sugar to the curtido or seasonings.
