Keto Karp po Żydowsku (bez rodzynek)
Keto Carp Jewish Style (without raisins)
Yes, with a tweak: absolutely no sugar or raisins. About 8g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Polish food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A traditional Polish-Jewish carp dish, prepared in a savory-sweet (keto-modified) gelatinous sauce with sliced onions, almonds, and spices, served cold. The classic raisins are omitted for keto.
Key ingredients
Carp fillets, fish broth (from bones, with gelatin), onion, almond slivers, butter, vinegar (optional, for tang), erythritol/stevia (for keto sweetness), bay leaf, allspice, black pepper, salt.
How to make it keto
Absolutely no sugar or raisins. Confirm the sauce is thickened naturally with gelatin from fish bones, not starch. Sweetness must come from keto-approved sweeteners.
