What it is
A classic Portuguese dish reimagined for keto. Salt cod shredded and sautéed with onions, garlic, and bell peppers, then mixed with scrambled eggs. Traditionally contains matchstick potatoes, which are replaced with keto-friendly vegetables like zucchini or cauliflower rice for a low-carb version.
Key ingredients
Salt cod, olive oil, onions, garlic, bell peppers, eggs, parsley, black pepper, zucchini or cauliflower rice (substituted).
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no potatoes ('sem batatas'). Ensure no added sugar in preparation. Request side of green salad (no croutons) or steamed green vegetables (e.g., broccoli, green beans).
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in seasoning blends. Risk of cross-contamination with potatoes if not carefully prepared. Large portions of onions and bell peppers can contribute to carb count.
