Fish in Pomegranate Sauce
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no added sugar to the pomegranate sauce. About 14g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Georgian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Pan-fried or baked whole fish, commonly trout or sturgeon, generously coated in a tangy and aromatic pomegranate sauce. This dish is naturally low in carbs, focusing on fresh fish and vibrant fruit flavors with herbs.
Key ingredients
Whole fish (trout/sturgeon), fresh pomegranate juice, pomegranate seeds, red onion, cilantro, garlic, cooking oil, salt, black pepper, Georgian spices.
How to make it keto
Ensure no added sugar to the pomegranate sauce. Confirm the fish is pan-fried or baked, not breaded or deep-fried in a starchy coating.
Watch out for
Potential hidden sugar in restaurant-prepared pomegranate sauce. Excessive use of onion can add a small amount of carbs.
