Remove and set aside. Add cut steak to the same skillet and quickly fry over high heat for 3-5 minutes. Add brandy and continue cooking until alcohol burns off, add stock, mustard, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Scrape the bottom of the pan with a spatula to release all the brown bits, they will add much flavour to the sauce. Bring mushrooms and onions back to the pan and cook for 3 minutes until everything is heated through and bubbling. Stir in sour cream and parsley and take off the heat. Serve with mounds of mashed potatoes or rice. Sauce was a little thin and I obviously didn't serve it over rice or potatoes. Other than xanthan gum what would be a good way to thicken the sauce? Just cook it longer? Reduce Beef Stock? I also added 8oz of fresh shredded mozzarella on top at the end and put it under the broiler for 5 minutes. I don't know if almond flour will act as a thickening agent, the way flour does. Corn starch is only 2.5g carbs per tsp. I would probably just use it and not worry about the carbs. A tsp. in a recipe that serves 6 people is a minor amount, and should be more than enough to thicken the 1/2 of stock in that recipe. |

I tried onion rings last night. I know onions are fairly high in carbs, but I only used two slices separated into rings.
I used an egg wash, then coated them in a mix of almond flour and crushed pork rinds. They were good, but the breading was pretty spotty. I think I'm going to try making a batter with egg, almond flour, and a little water. Then sprinkle the batter with the pork rinds to give it a little extra crunchiness. I cooked them in beef tallow at 375° for about 10 minutes. I'm digging the beef tallow (light flavor and 400° smoke point) but it's really expensive. I'm keeping 14oz. jars separated (fish, chicken, general frying) and straining out the solids with cheesecloth before storing in the fridge. It's a very stable oil, so I should be able to get a lot of life out of each jar. I love that deep frying food is a great way to get more good fats into my diet. |

This was good: http://www.wickedstuffed.com/keto-recipes/low-carb-keto-pancakes-recipe-with-cream-cheese/
Cream Cheese Keto Pancakes (4 net carbs) 2 oz cream cheese 2 eggs ½ tsp cinnamon 1 tbsp coconut flour 1/2 to 1 packet of Stevia in the Raw (or whatever Stevia you like) Blend or beat together all of the ingredients until smooth. You’ll make two pancakes, so heat up a non-stick pan or skillet with butter or coconut oil on medium-high. Make them just like you would normal pancakes. Try to cook it most of the way on one side and then flip! Top with butter and/or a sugar-free maple syrup (check your labels, they aren’t all created equal!) |

We made some flank stuffed pinwheels a few days ago, browned with Kerry Gold butter. I prefer them with a little gravy on the side to add some moisture because flank, though tasty, is a low fat. The struggle has been to get away from flour and to add some body to the gravy..
We started with a 1.5 cup of unsalted beef stock in a pot and reduced it by half with a sprig of thyme. We added some xanthum gum, sparingly, to the broth. After the flank was browned in a pan we put it in the oven to finish at about 128 degrees.. We let the flank rest but put the pan drippings in the broth to improve the flavor. Add a splash of heavy cream near the end and salt and pepper to taste. It was very good. |

I'm always on the lookout for good substitutes. (Pork rind crumbs, anyone?)
I tried these last night. The texture was good - nice and firm, and being tofu, they picked up the oyster sauce flavor in my chicken and broccoli stir-fry. I'm going to try them with some Rao's sauce, a couple of meatballs, and some parmesan. I'll think they'll work. I bought these at a local chain grocery store. |

For lunch today we had Cauliflower Crust Keto Pizza, recipe for the crust is HERE
It's not crispy like a normal thin crust pizza but I would imaging if we thinned this one a bit more it would crisp up ok. Regardless, it was delicious and satisfying! Wife and kids all loved it. |

I cooked these tofu noodles and served them with Rao's and some Italian sausage. I'm glad I found them. The texture is very similar to spaghetti noodles - al dente. They're pretty tasty, even though they didn't really soak up the marinara the way flour-based pasta does. Funny, because tofu typically does great at absorbing liquids. I'll be keeping these in my fridge for a good low-carb bulking food. |

My half size batch lasted me two nights. I made it in a crock in the oven and then on night two cooked it again at 350 for 15 minutes. I think it was better on night two. I've also made it in a crock pot, great for parties. The ingredients should be fairly common in a keto household. I had to buy the blue cheese dressing and a can of cheap Walmart chicken. Feels refreshing to search through canned chicken looking for the fattiest chicken. Also you can substitute a rotisserie chicken which would provide more fat. |

View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Or buy Primal Kitchen The homemade stuff is easy, has a good shelf life in the fridge (when you use whey) and actually tastes good! A whole lot cheaper than the Primal Kitchen stuff. Keto is expensive, and I'm trying to save pennies where possible. And I already had the stick blender and the strainer, so it was easy. I get the whey by pouring unstrained plain yogurt into one of these fine mesh strainers that I bought cheap at a restaurant supply store - which are great for straining bone broths as well. This one is a bullion strainer, which I believe has the finest mesh available: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/31wHpr6-dCL._SX355_.jpg One thing I saw some people use instead of whey is a capsule of probiotics. Has anyone tried that? I haven't tried it, but I have heard of that. I'll give it a whirl and report back. |

I was wanting to fry up some pickled on pork rind breaking. Anyone have a good recipe?
I've got ghee and butter I can use. |

Salmon cakes recipe.
I made these yesterday. Very good, but I would increase the salmon by 30% and decrease the veggies 30%. Salmon flavor was not as dominant as I would have liked.

Quoted: As requested MEATZZA...It's different every time but here is the idea. 1lb grass fed ground beef with a 1/2 cup nut flour, some pink salt and italian spices. Mix together and smash flat in pizza pan. Place in oven for 10 minutes on a medium heat. To high and it shrinks and that annoys me. I then add 1/3 cup of an organic low carb (no sugar added) marinara spread over the surface. then in layers. 2 cups shredded sheep cheese 2 cups fresh mushrooms 2 cups sliced green olives 2 cups sliced black olives a HUGE pile of spinach, it shrinks down a bunch I think it was 4 inches worth on this one. Another 2-4 cups of sheep cheese. A splash of sauce on top is pretty as per the wife. Toss it back in the oven for 10 minutes on high. I usually just eyeball it till looks right. We get 4 servings not sure of the carbs 5-10 per serving? http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t664/beau1911/Mobile%20Uploads/IMG_20160910_180143_zps9kc0drvn.jpg View Quote Thanks! That is on my list for sure. |

Low-carb cheese danish I just made.

I won't use Stevia the next time. I will use granulated erythritol instead. Every bite of the danish has that characteristic bitter Stevia aftertaste. It's not overwhelming, but it's just enough to make me wish I hadn't used it. Erythritol tastes like almost exactly like sugar - at about one-fourth the sweetness. I think 1/4 C in the dough (which was really good) and 1/4 C in the filling. Also, I needed to use a longer pan, and roll the dough out thinner. Again, it was good, but I ended up with a lot of filling for the size dough I had. (The pink stuff is a little maraschino cherry juice, and about 8 cherries, roughly chopped.) |
