Many Asian style recipes require high carb sauces in their ingredients to get that authentic restaurant taste. We created our version of one of those – Low Carb Hoisin Sauce, it’s not identical but it’s as close as we can get while keeping it Keto.
By making the sauce at home with keto-friendly ingredients, we’ve reduced the carb count from 7g per tablespoon to just 2g (1g net carbs) per tablespoon. Not to mention, our version is free from sugar and contains only a small amount of Sugar-Free Maple Syrup for sweetness – which can be swapped out for the equivalent in liquid Stevia.
We’ve used this sauce in our Asian Style Shredded Beef, and it really shines through. It’s a great sauce to throw through a quick midweek stir-fry or marinate your favorite protein before grilling. You can even add it to our Cauliflower Fried Rice for extra deliciousness!
This recipe makes ½ cup of sauce, which is 8 servings. 1 serving is 1 tablespoon.
