What it is
Grilled or steamed fresh green asparagus spears, generously topped with classic, rich Hollandaise sauce, and often served alongside slices of savory smoked ham. During Spargelzeit (asparagus season), this is a beloved dish, almost always served with potatoes.
Key ingredients
Green asparagus, butter, egg yolks, lemon juice, smoked ham (e.g., Black Forest ham), salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Crucially, omit all potato sides. Verify that the Hollandaise sauce is authentic (made with butter, egg yolks, and lemon) and not a commercial or flour-thickened substitute. Confirm the smoked ham is not glazed with sugar.
Watch out for
Potato sides, non-authentic Hollandaise sauce, sweetened ham.
