Moules Marinières avec Salade Verte
Mussels in White Wine Sauce with Green Salad
Yes, with a tweak: omit the traditional side of frites (french fries). About 11g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for French food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Fresh mussels steamed in a fragrant broth of white wine, butter, shallots, and parsley, often served in their cooking pot. Accompanied by a simple green salad.
Key ingredients
Fresh mussels, white wine, butter, shallots, garlic, parsley, olive oil, mixed greens, red wine vinegar.
How to make it keto
Crucially, omit the traditional side of frites (french fries). Also, avoid dipping bread into the broth. Request a side salad with an oil-and-vinegar dressing instead.
Watch out for
The most significant carb risk is the accompanying french fries and bread. While white wine has some carbs, it's typically cooked down, leaving minimal residual sugar. Some restaurant sauces might add a thickener or extra sugar, so inquire if possible.
