Gebratenes Fischfilet mit Kräuterbutter
Pan-Fried Fish Fillet with Herb Butter
Yes, keto as served. About 2g net carbs per serving, lower than 9 in 10 German dishes.
What it is
Fresh fish fillet (such as cod, salmon, or plaice) pan-fried to perfection, served simply with a generous knob of aromatic herb butter. This dish is naturally keto-friendly when served without typical potato sides.
Key ingredients
Fish fillet (e.g., Cod, Salmon, Plaice), butter, fresh herbs (parsley, chives, dill), lemon, salt, pepper.
Optional tweaks
Ensure the fish is not breaded or dredged in flour before frying. Request no potato sides (e.g., Salzkartoffeln, Kartoffelsalat). Ask for extra herb butter or a side of steamed low-carb vegetables like green beans or broccoli.
Say this to the waiter (German)
