What it is

Key ingredients
Herring fillets, heavy cream, onion, dill, butter/oil, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Request the herring be pan-fried without flour (ohne Mehl) or breading. Ensure the cream sauce (Rahmsauce) is made without flour thickeners or sugar. Request low-carb vegetables (e.g., spinach, green beans) instead of potatoes (Kartoffeln).
Watch out for
Flour for dredging herring. Sugar or thickeners (e.g., cornstarch, flour) in the cream sauce.
