Pan-Fried Fresh Mackerel Fillets with Gooseberry Butter and Green Beans
Yes, with a tweak: ensure the gooseberry butter uses a minimal amount of gooseberries for flavour, or a sugar-free gooseberry extract, as gooseberries are high in natural sugars. About 6g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Freshly caught mackerel fillets, pan-fried to crisp perfection, served with a unique Irish gooseberry butter and tender green beans. A flavorful and traditionally inspired dish.
Key ingredients
Mackerel fillets, butter, gooseberries (very small amount for flavour), green beans, salt, black pepper, olive oil (for frying).
How to make it keto
Crucially, ensure the gooseberry butter uses a minimal amount of gooseberries for flavour, or a sugar-free gooseberry extract, as gooseberries are high in natural sugars. Confirm no breading on the fish and green beans are simply prepared without sugar or other high-carb additions.
Watch out for
Gooseberries are high in carbs and can quickly raise net carbs if used excessively in the butter; potential flour/cornstarch in butter sauce; hidden sugars in seasoning or marinades; cross-contamination from fryer oil if used for breaded items.
