Low-carb Parsley Kohlrabi – Keto, Paleo Side Dish

Who doesn’t want parsley potatoes? I love it too, and even Hungarian cuisine can only imagine the fried meat with potatoes (or rice). Although the carbohydrate content of potatoes is not so dangerous yet, rice is exceptionally high. Therefore, it is advisable to find other alternatives instead of these garnishes. The kohlrabi is a great substitute for fries. It may not taste as neutral as potatoes, but it’s delicious and after all, it’s all just a matter of habit. But when you have to reduce the carbohydrate content of your foods, you can  reduce the carbohydrate content of the garnish much easier since  carbohydrate content of side dishes are usually higher.

By comparison, 100 g of raw kohlrabi contains a total of 2.6 g of net carbohydrates, while 100 g of potatoes contain 18.6 g. (Since I also mentioned rice at the beginning, I also describe the carbohydrate content of 100 g of rice raw: ~ 73 g, cooked: ~ 24 g) And when you try to stay below 50 g (or less) of carbohydrate intake per a day, these values matter a lot.
