Hakka Abacus Seeds (Keto Version - Cauliflower/Radish)
Keto Hakka Taro-Inspired Dumplings Stir-fry (with Cauliflower/Radish)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request the 'seeds' to be made from cauliflower and radish instead of yam/tapioca. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Singaporean food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A creative keto interpretation of the traditional Hakka dish, where the 'abacus seeds' are crafted from mashed cauliflower and grated radish, stir-fried with minced pork, dried shrimp, dried mushrooms, and black fungus, seasoned with soy sauce.
Key ingredients
Cauliflower, daikon radish, minced pork, dried shrimp, dried shiitake mushrooms, black fungus, garlic, shallots, light soy sauce (low sugar), cooking oil.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request the 'seeds' to be made from cauliflower and radish instead of yam/tapioca. Ensure no starch thickeners and minimal or no sugar in the seasoning.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in soy sauce. Cauliflower and radish in large quantities contribute carbs.
