A keto-friendly version of the classic 'Bacalhau à Brás,' this dish features shredded salted cod sautéed with onions, extra virgin olive oil, and scrambled with eggs. The traditional matchstick fries are replaced with generous portions of tender sautéed cabbage to maintain texture and flavor without the carbs.

Key ingredients

Shredded salted cod (bacalhau), eggs, olive oil, onions, garlic, green cabbage, black pepper, parsley.

If you order it anyway

Explicitly request omission of matchstick fries (batata palha) and substitution with sautéed cabbage (couve refogada) or cauliflower rice. Confirm no flour is used to dust the cod or thicken the mixture.

If you order it anyway, say this (Portuguese)

No Bacalhau, por favor, sem batata palha. Posso trocar por couve refogada ou arroz de couve-flor? Tem farinha no preparo?

For the Bacalhau, please no batata palha. Can I have extra couve refogada or cauliflower rice instead? Is there any flour used?

Watch out for

Onions (can be high in large restaurant portions), hidden starches/flour in cod preparation, potential sugar in seasoning mixes.
