What can I say about this post? I’m really not sure. As being a long time ketoer, I gave up on fries a long time ago. Or should I say fries are my “cheat meal” once in a while. Why? Because nothing tastes like fries, ABSOF****INGLOUTELY NOTHING! I’ve tries jicama, rutabaga, radish, and everything in between but nothing tastes like fries. Yes we can pretend and eat them but nope, they do not taste like fries.

So I recently came across a video of keto fries & of course I had to try it. And I did & yes it tasted pretty close to fries. So the credit to this recipe with all due respect and much love and thanks goes to Heavenly Fan on YouTube. She has amazing vegan keto recipes, so please check her out.

Back to I tried the recipe. It was great as she only uses flour and xanthan gum, fries it and adds salt. For me it was lacking flavor and also it was a bit crumbly, so I played around with the recipe and here’s my tweaked up version of fries that are pretty awesome. Crispy on the outside & fluffy on the inside, these keto/ low carb fries are everything you’ve been missing.

My kids and I prefer the fried version over air fried. Air fried ones come out more of a bread stick texture which is awesome as well but we loved the fried ones. Guess how many were left for me when I made this video? I’ll give you a hint, it rhymes with hero lol
