What it is
Succulent shrimp and select keto-friendly vegetables (e.g., asparagus, green beans, broccoli) lightly coated in a crispy, low-carb batter (such as almond flour or whey protein isolate) and deep-fried to a golden perfection. Served with a sugar-free dipping sauce.
Key ingredients
Shrimp, asparagus, green beans, broccoli, almond flour or whey protein batter, sugar-free dipping sauce
If you order it anyway
Request a low-carb batter (explicitly specify almond flour, whey protein isolate, or psyllium husk-based batter). Ensure only keto-friendly vegetables are used (avoid sweet potato, pumpkin, lotus root, corn). Confirm dipping sauce is sugar-free (e.g., tamari-based with keto sweetener instead of mirin/sugar).
If you order it anyway, say this (Japanese)
ケト天ぷらは、低糖質の衣とケト対応の野菜でお願いします。つけ汁が砂糖不使用か確認できますか？
For Keto Tempura, please use a low-carb batter and only keto-friendly vegetables. Can you confirm the dipping sauce is sugar-free?
Watch out for
Traditional tempura batter (flour-based), high-carb vegetables, hidden sugars in commercial dipping sauces, cross-contamination if fried in shared oil with high-carb items.
