Ped Yang (Keto, No Sweet Sauce, Skin Removed)
Keto Roasted Duck (no sweet sauce, skin removed)
Yes, with a tweak: no sweet plum sauce or any sugary glaze on the duck. About 4g net carbs per serving, lower than 9 in 10 Thai dishes.
What it is
Juicy slices of roasted duck. To make it keto-friendly, it's essential to specify no sweet plum sauce or any other sugary glaze. Request the skin to be removed, as it's often caramelized with sugar. Serve with a simple, sugar-free lime-chili-fish sauce dip.
Key ingredients
Roasted duck (boneless, skinless meat), cucumber slices (for garnish only), lime, fresh bird's eye chilies, fish sauce for dipping.
How to make it keto
Crucially, no sweet plum sauce or any sugary glaze on the duck. Best to request the skin to be entirely removed. Ask for a simple, sugar-free dipping sauce made from fish sauce, lime juice, and fresh chilies.
