Join us on a journey to eat keto asian style
Isolation Carnivore With the world in relative isolation, it’s the perfect time to be in control of what to eat and what to do. There are no social pressures to have a particular food or participate in a party. So with this in mind, I am now on a steak and eggs diet for a […]
Chicken Thighs on a Keto diet One of my favourite and simple protein/fat components of eating a Asian Keto diet is ‘dark meat’ from a chicken and not just any dark meat, but the thigh. And you wouldn’t be Asian enough if you didn’t eat the part with the bones rather than just a thigh […]
My keto meals at home are usually fairly simple. Generally the keto meals are a combination of greens and protein that includes fat… Dinners and lunches at home tend to be something I can whip up pretty quickly on the stove. And maybe with the help of an air fryer. Greens – Bok Choy or […]
Are you wanting to get some snack food that is a good protein source in the form of meat and Asian? Have you tried Chinese dried pork jerky? I use to really enjoy Chinese Pork Jerky. But it was expensive. And due to the sugar and honey content in the original recipe not keto friendly. […]
You may have realised I love eating roast duck. I also love spring onion duck. It’s a recipe that my mum cooks and pre-keto I’d eat rice with the sauce and the spring onions. So much yum! Duck is very keto friendly being a high fat and delicious protein filled meat and 0 carbs. At […]
My favourite Hong Kong keto meals! You may realise I love having duck and vegetables from a Chinese BBQ place. But in Hong Kong, the ante is up’d again. To Goose. Roast goose. Yup! Yum. And… suckling pig. OMG. So delicious. If you get stuck with ordering, just order it normally and don’t eat the […]
Keto Fried Chicken I always have associated fried chicken as an Asian thing. Although a lot of “the south” in the US also have claimed fried chicken as their own. Maybe it’s universally liked (at least those who like to eat chicken!). In terms of cuts I definitely have a preference for the thigh cutlet […]
Have you ever had a 纸包蛋糕? It’s basically a sponge cake but a tall cupcake one. It was one of my favourite cakes to get from a Chinese bakery and a classic item (as in not fancy, hipster cakes you can now get from places like Breadtop). The cool thing was they were tall and […]
One of my favourite dishes (even before being on the keto bandwagon) at yum cha was pork spare ribs. The chilli and black bean taste and pork was such an awesome combination. I made my version in a pressure cooker. You can just steam it normally too… Using a pressure cooker or instapot is great […]
Chinese Roast Duck is my lazy keto option My go to Chinese meal for keto is duck. Mainly because it’s easy to go to a Chinese BBQ place and just get a “duck and rice” and just ask them to hold the rice. Often the person behind the counter will give me more Asian greens […]
