Key ingredients
Hard cheese (e.g., Eidam, Hermelín), almond flour, egg, pork rind crumbs (optional for extra crunch), oil for frying, side salad (lettuce, cucumber, tomato), lemon.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request breading with almond flour or crushed pork rinds instead of traditional wheat flour. Ensure it's pan-fried in keto-friendly oil (e.g., lard, olive oil, not vegetable oil). Serve with a side salad (oil & vinegar dressing) instead of fries, tartar sauce (often sugary), or bread.
