Keto side dish 'Potatoes with Mushrooms' is a refined alternative to traditional potato sides, perfectly fitting low-carb diet principles. The dish is based on celery root, which acquires a texture and aroma reminiscent of baked potatoes when prepared correctly. Combined with crispy golden lard bits, tender mushrooms, and fragrant onions, it creates a harmony of flavors enhanced by spices and fresh dill. This dish is not only nutritious but also delicious: it combines a crunchy texture with rich earthy notes of mushrooms and a hint of garlic's spiciness. The keto side dish is great as a standalone meal or as an appetizing addition to meat and fish dishes.
