“This is a quick and easy keto vegetable side dish of broccolini in garlic sage butter. It is great alongside meat, chicken or fish, but I quite like it alongside pork chops. Enjoy! ” – Monya

Broccolini in Garlic Sage Butter (Keto)
Cauliflower in Garlic Browned Butter (Keto)
“Cauliflower in garlic browned butter is a great vegetable side dish. In this easy recipe, I simply melt garlic browned butter over cooked cauliflower. It is delicious served with grilled fish, chicken or meat.” – Monya
Brown Butter Fried Halloumi (Keto)
“Everyone is making halloumi ‘fries’. Many pubs even offer them to those living low carb, which is great. I wanted to try it for myself, but since I never heat any oils to high-frying temperatures, I decided to fry my squeaky pieces in browned butter instead. Brown butter is just regular butter that is heated for a while. The magic happens once the butter stops sizzling and foaming, and the milk solids start browning. This process adds massive flavour to the butter. Once strained from the burnt milk solids, the result is a browned butter that adds a delicious, nutty flavour, It is indescribable! I did this to make my super delicious little halloumi fingers. Dip them in some reduced-sugar ketchup for a quick snack or tapas idea. If you are living clean keto, try my homemade tomato ketchup if you have some on hand. Macros here exclude any dips.” – Monya
Cod with Brown Butter and Capers (Keto)
“This is a very simple fish dinner that requires only a little effort. Skinless cod fillets are very gently baked in the oven while butter is browned and infused with garlic on the stove top. After straining, I warm the butter through with little capers (which add great bursts of salty flavour) then pour it over the fish along with a generous squeeze of lemon. The night we enjoyed this, we had it with Fresh Tomato and Garlic relish which was an excellent accompaniment and highly recommended. I have not included the macros for this condiment because it is optional. However, it was sensational and I highly recommend you include it.” – Monya
Broccoli and Brown Butter Mash (Keto)
“I simply mashed up cooked broccoli with ‘browned’ butter in this easy broccoli and brown butter mash. Browned butter (Beurre Noisette) is basically butter that has been melted until the milk solids separate and start to brown. I love the flavour this brings to the strained butter – and you will too! If you choose to always have a batch of little set browned butter cubes on hand, I have a Beurre Noisette recipe on the site which is portioned after setting and can be used in numerous ways.” – Monya
Brown-buttered Brussels Sprouts (Keto)
“As I mentioned on a previous post, if you aren’t a fan of Brussels sprouts, you are probably preparing them wrong. Here, I simply tossed cooked, drained sprouts in melted Beurre Noisette (browned butter) – and it’s outstanding! I have done the same thing with cooked broccoli and its incredible! If you haven’t already tried browning butter, please give it ago.” – Monya
Beurre Noisette (Brown Butter)
“Let’s take butter up a notch in flavour! Try this recipe at least once and I promise you will not regret it. Beurre noisette (brown butter) has a deep, rich, nutty flavour that remind me of caramel. A block or two of browned butter can be used to cook eggs, add to your baking, or melt over cooked vegetables, like I did on my Brown-buttered Brussels Sprouts. And more good news: since you are essentially removing the milk solids from the butter (when you strain it through the muslin / cheesecloth), so this browned butter is even lower in carbs than regular butter (in fact, its zero carbs). If you love it (and I know you will), make a larger batch next time.” – Monya
