What it is
A keto-friendly interpretation of a beloved cod gratin, featuring tender shredded salted cod baked in a creamy, garlicky sauce with a base of rich cauliflower mash, and topped with a golden-brown mayonnaise crust.
Key ingredients
Salted cod, cauliflower, heavy cream, mayonnaise, olive oil, onions (small amount), garlic, parsley, cheese (optional, for topping).
How to make it keto
Ensure cauliflower is explicitly used instead of potatoes for the mash base. Confirm no flour or starch thickeners are used in the cream sauce. Request a minimal amount of onions to reduce carb count.
Watch out for
Onions are used and contribute carbs; large quantities should be avoided. Some pre-made mayonnaise or cream sauces might contain hidden sugars (less common in Portugal but possible). Ensure no flour is used as a thickener in the sauce.
