Keto Maksalaatikko
Liver Casserole with Cauliflower Rice
Yes, with a tweak: ensure cauliflower rice is used instead of traditional rice. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Finnish food, so watch the portion.
What it is

Key ingredients
Ground liver (pork or beef), cauliflower rice, heavy cream, onion, butter, eggs, marjoram, salt, black pepper, minimal amount of molasses (can be omitted for strict keto).
How to make it keto
Ensure cauliflower rice is used instead of traditional rice. Request no added sugar/syrup/molasses. Served without lingonberry jam (high carb).
