“This is a rich and indulgent keto vegetable side dish: simple asparagus in garlic cream. Here, I blanch trimmed asparagus before baking them in a rich, garlic cream. Please try and source the big, fat asparagus for this recipe.” – Monya

Asparagus in Garlic Cream (Keto)
Celeriac Parmesan Chips (Keto)
“I have been meaning to share my celeriac chip recipe for a while now. However, I wanted to give it some more ‘kick’ in terms of spicy flavour. Here, I partially cook my celeriac batons in boiling water, then allow them to drain off. My fat (I used lard) is infused with garlic powder and paprika. I then scatter over Parmesan in the last 5 minutes after letting them finish in the oven. This recipe is suitable for 4 as a side dish, but you can adjust the recipe if you wish to make a smaller or larger batch.” – Monya
Ultimate Cauliflower Bake with Tomatoes and Basil (Keto)
“Who doesn’t love a classic cauliflower bake? I have a delicious, easy recipe in my first book (Keto Kitchen), but I am all for ‘pimping’ the classics! My whole life revolves around food and flavour – and I think I ticked all the boxes with my latest cauli-bake. The creamy mixture is infused with basil and I added Parmesan (for extra richness and flavour) as well as tomatoes which add the most delicious sweetness. This dish came about by accident one night – just like all the best ones do.” – Monya
Buttered Asparagus with Parmesan (Keto)
“OK, let’s be honest here… everything tastes better with butter and this is merely an idea with some cheffy techniques added to help you prepare perfect buttered asparagus. If you are okay with your urine smelling funky for a day, try this super-simple recipe. And if you don’t suffer from bizarre-smelling urine after eating asparagus, consider yourself a very small percentage of the population. (I will leave you to Google what I am on about, if you don’t already know.) Enjoy this lovely, easy side dish – and be sure to also check out the Brown-buttered Brussels Sprouts on the site!” – Monya
