Valkosipulivoissa Paistetut Etanat
Snails Sautéed in Garlic Butter
Yes, keto as served. About 4g net carbs per serving, lower than 7 in 10 Finnish dishes.
What it is
Snails generously sautéed in garlic-herb butter. While often associated with French cuisine, it's a common and naturally keto-friendly appetizer found in many European-influenced Finnish restaurants.
Key ingredients
Snails, ample butter, fresh garlic, fresh parsley, salt, black pepper, a splash of dry white wine (optional).
Optional tweaks
Ensure no bread is served for dipping the butter. Confirm no flour or starch is used to thicken the garlic butter sauce, which is typically not the case but worth checking in a restaurant setting.
