Keto Plantain-Free Discs with Filling
Yes, with a tweak: crucially replaces plantain with fried cheese or thick-sliced, pan-fried/air-fried eggplant. About 5g net carbs per serving, lower than 7 in 10 Venezuelan dishes.
What it is
A creative keto take on the classic Patacones. Instead of plantain, crispy fried cheese or thick eggplant slices serve as the base, topped with savory beef or chicken filling and a dollop of keto-friendly guasacaca.
Key ingredients
Fried cheese (e.g., Halloumi or firm white cheese) OR thick-sliced eggplant, beef mechada (keto-prepared) OR pollo guisado (keto-prepared), guasacaca (keto), tomato, lettuce, olive oil.
How to make it keto
Crucially replaces plantain with fried cheese or thick-sliced, pan-fried/air-fried eggplant. The fillings (mechada/guisado) must be keto-prepared (no sugar, no starchy thickeners). Ensure guasacaca is made without high-carb ingredients.
Watch out for
Fillings or sauces may contain hidden sugars or starches. Incorrect preparation of guasacaca.
