Two great keto recipe ideas
These are excellent for making keto friendly tortillas ( if you're idle or don't want to waste eggs). Mix half a cup of coconut flour with 250 ml of egg whites. Add water to get a runny consistency. Also add any spices or herbs you wish. Preheat a frying pan of the size you'd like your tortillas to a medium heat. Add half a cup of the mixture to the pan and IMMEDIATELY keep swirling it around the whole pan. When it bubbles up, after becoming firm, flip it and cook the reverse side for 30 seconds to a minute, until you get the colour and consistency of a tortilla. These DO NOT taste like crepes (as you'd expect) but are soft, pliable and hold firm for tortilla wraps without the carbs (approx. 1 carb each) for a 6"-7" pan, expect to get around 16 tortillas/wraps that keep well in the fridge, in a ziplock bag or similar. They can also be frozen in batches, but I'd suggest putting grease proof paper etc. between them. However, for a CHEAPER less expensive alternative. Use separated free range eggs, and for this quantity use 8 egg whites. Then you can make a low carb, high quality mayonnaise with extra virgin olive oil, or my preference, extra virgin cold pressed avocado oil out of the yolks and keep it in a jar. This lasts about a week. But you can extend this to a month if you pasturise the yolks by mixing them and giving them a few seconds at a time in the microwave (not long enough to cook) and keep checking them until they reach 65°C. Add the oil slowly whilst whisking or blending. But if you have a hand held stick blender, just throw everything together and blend until you reach the right mayo consistency. Enjoy these two amazing keto recipes, without the added unknown 'nasties' like over processed seed oils.
So handy...
So handy for quick omelettes! no need to throw away all the yolks as well, which felt wasteful.
