Keto Katsu Burger

The Keto Katsu Burger is a delicious twist on traditional Japanese katsu, featuring a succulent pork patty coated in a crunchy almond flour crust. Served with a tangy keto-friendly sauce and fresh greens, this burger is perfect for those following a low-carb lifestyle.

Ingredients

• Ground pork - 250 grams
• Almond flour - 50 grams
• Egg - 1 large
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Onion powder - 1 teaspoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• Coconut oil - 2 tablespoons (for frying)
• Lettuce leaves - 4 leaves
• Sliced cucumber - 50 grams
• Keto-friendly sauce (e.g., sugar-free mayo or low-carb katsu sauce) - 2 tablespoons

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
2. Form the mixture into two equal-sized patties.
3. Dip each patty in the beaten egg, then coat thoroughly with almond flour.
4. Heat coconut oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
5. While the patties are cooking, prepare the burger assembly. Lay down a lettuce leaf, place the cooked patty on top, and add sliced cucumber.
6. Top with your preferred keto-friendly sauce before adding another lettuce leaf as a cover.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Katsu Burger!
