Matjesfilet mit Sour Cream und Dillsoße
Pickled Herring Fillets with Sour Cream and Dill Sauce
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no boiled potatoes ('keine Salzkartoffeln'). About 14g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for German food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Delicately pickled young herring fillets, served in a creamy sour cream and fresh dill sauce. Enjoyed without traditional carb-heavy sides.
Key ingredients
Matjes (pickled herring fillets), sour cream, dill, red onion (small amount), keto sides (e.g., green salad).
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no boiled potatoes ('keine Salzkartoffeln'). Ask to omit any apple pieces from the sauce/garnish. Confirm no added sugar to the sour cream sauce. A simple green salad or extra pickles are good keto side options.
Watch out for
Boiled potato side (major risk), apple pieces in the sauce (traditional, must omit), hidden sugar in sour cream sauce, some commercial pickled herring preparations might have higher sugar (though traditional Matjes is usually low).
