키토 가지볶음 (설탕 무첨가 양념)
Keto Eggplant Stir-fry (Sugar-Free Sauce)
Yes, with a tweak: request no sugar or corn syrup in the stir-fry sauce. About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Korean food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender eggplant pieces stir-fried with garlic, soy sauce, and sesame oil, modified to be sugar-free. Eggplant readily absorbs oil, making it a satisfying and flavorful side dish (banchan).
Key ingredients
Eggplant, garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, green onions, keto-friendly sweetener (optional).
How to make it keto
Request no sugar or corn syrup in the stir-fry sauce. Eggplant naturally absorbs a lot of oil, which is favorable for keto macros. Confirm no other high-carb vegetables are added.
Say this to the waiter (Korean)
가지볶음 양념은 설탕, 물엿 없이 해 주시고, 다른 당 높은 채소는 빼주세요.
For the Gaji Bokkeum, please make the sauce without sugar or corn syrup, and no high-carb vegetables.
Watch out for
Hidden sugar in the stir-fry sauce. Less common for other high-carb vegetables to be added in significant amounts compared to other stir-fries.
