Ingredients:
4 chicken eggs
7 fish balls, cut in half (check for low-carb versions)
Half a small carrot, cut in half and sliced (use in moderation for keto)
Optional vegetables (zucchini or spinach work well for keto)
3 cloves garlic, chopped
Optional: 1/2 chicken stock cube (choose low-sodium and sugar-free if possible)
White pepper, to taste
Salt, to taste
2 cups water (add more if using more eggs)
Chili, chopped (optional for heat)
Cooking Instructions:
Cook Garlic without Oil: In a large pot, add a small amount of water and garlic instead of oil. Sauté over low heat until garlic softens and turns slightly golden.
Add Vegetables and Seasoning: Add the carrot (or substitute zucchini) and 2 cups of water. Season with the chicken stock cube (optional), salt, and white pepper. Bring the broth to a boil.
Add Fish Balls and Eggs: Once the broth is boiling, reduce the heat slightly, add the fish balls, and let cook briefly. Crack each egg into a separate bowl, then gently slide them into the pot one at a time. Allow the eggs to set without stirring too much.
Serve with Garnish: Garnish with sliced chili and additional low-carb greens if desired.
Tips:
This recipe serves 2 and can be customized with other low-carb vegetables like spinach, cauliflower, or bok choy.
