Keto Crni Rižot (Squid Ink Cauliflower Risotto)
Keto Black Squid Ink Cauliflower Risotto
Yes, with a tweak: this is a significant modification. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Montenegrin food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A keto-adapted version of the classic Montenegrin black risotto, traditionally made with rice. This version uses riced cauliflower cooked with fresh squid, garlic, white wine (or broth), olive oil, and squid ink to achieve its characteristic color and rich seafood flavor.
Key ingredients
Squid, cauliflower rice, squid ink, garlic, onion (small amount), olive oil, white wine (or dry vermouth/broth), parmesan cheese, parsley, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
This is a significant modification. Explicitly request *cauliflower rice instead of regular rice*. Confirm no flour or other starches are used as thickeners. Ensure the white wine is used sparingly and cooked off.
Watch out for
Traditional rice is the primary carb. Small amounts of sugar might be added to balance flavor in some recipes. White wine adds minimal carbs but should be cooked off. Onion content should be kept low.
