Montenegrin Fish Stew with Keto Greens
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no polenta or potatoes. About 8g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Montenegrin food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A rich fish stew, typically made with various types of fish cooked in a tomato-based broth with herbs and garlic. Traditionally served with polenta or potatoes.
Key ingredients
Mixed fish fillets, olive oil, onion, garlic, fresh tomatoes (or canned crushed tomatoes), white wine (small amount, mostly cooks off), parsley, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no polenta or potatoes. Ensure no flour is used as a thickener. Ask for a side of steamed or sautéed low-carb vegetables like blitva (Swiss chard, without potatoes).
Watch out for
Polenta or potatoes are common accompaniments; ensure omission. Tomato base can contribute carbs; verify no added sugar. White wine adds minimal carbs if cooked off, but still a small risk.
