How to make it keto
Crucially, request no flour or breading for frying the herring. Ensure onions are not caramelized with sugar; only sautéed in fat. Avoid any high-carb side dishes.
Watch out for
Herring is very commonly coated in flour before frying. Onions can be caramelized with sugar in restaurants. Ensure these are explicitly avoided.
