潮州卤鸭 (生酮改造 - 限量花生)
Keto Teochew Braised Duck with Limited Peanuts
Yes, with a tweak: request no added sugar and no starch in the braising liquid. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Singaporean food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender duck meat braised in a flavorful Teochew-style dark soy sauce gravy, infused with star anise, cinnamon, ginger, and a very limited amount of peanuts for traditional flavor. The duck is slow-cooked until fall-off-the-bone tender, with the braising liquid reduced and rich.
Key ingredients
Duck, dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, star anise, cinnamon, galangal, ginger, garlic, very limited peanuts.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request no added sugar and no starch in the braising liquid. Specify a very small amount of peanuts (e.g., 1-2 tablespoons) or omit if desired.
Watch out for
Braising liquids commonly contain significant hidden sugars and cornstarch. Peanuts, while relatively low-carb, can add up if consumed in large quantities.
