Bacalhau à Brás (com Couve Desfiada)
Keto Cod Brás (with Shredded Cabbage)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no shoestring fries (batata palha). About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Portuguese food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A keto-friendly interpretation of the beloved Portuguese classic. This version replaces the traditional shoestring fries with finely shredded cabbage, sautéed until tender, creating a delicious base for shredded salted cod (bacalhau), scrambled eggs, onions, and garlic, finished with black olives and fresh parsley.
Key ingredients
Shredded salted cod (bacalhau), eggs, onions, garlic, olive oil, shredded cabbage, black olives, parsley.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no shoestring fries (batata palha). Ensure shredded cabbage or riced cauliflower is used as the base instead. Confirm no added sugar or flour in the cooking process.
Watch out for
The traditional version is fundamentally defined by shoestring fries. Onions contribute some carbs. Possible use of non-keto oils or hidden starches/thickeners in restaurant settings.
