What it is
A modern, keto adaptation of traditional eel dishes, this bake features tender chunks of eel and sliced leeks cooked in a rich, creamy sauce. Baked without pastry, the dish focuses on the delicate flavor of the eel and the sweetness of the leeks, bound by a luxurious cream and butter sauce, often topped with grated cheese for a golden crust.
Key ingredients
Fresh eel fillets, leeks, heavy cream, butter, fish stock, nutmeg, Dijon mustard (sugar-free), grated hard cheese (e.g., Cheddar or Parmesan), salt, white pepper.
How to make it keto
