A classic Scandinavian dish that is great for a keto-friendly meal is dilled gravlax with mustard sauce. A mix of salt, erythritol, and dill is used to cure the salmon, making it flavorful and tender. The rich salmon goes well with the sour mustard sauce, making this a delicious dish for any event.
Ingredients: 1 lb salmon fillet, skin-on. 1/4 cup salt. 1/4 cup erythritol or other keto-friendly sweetener. 2 tbsp black peppercorns, crushed. 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped. 1/4 cup mustard. 2 tbsp mayonnaise. 1 tbsp lemon juice. Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions: Add salt and erythritol to a small bowl and mix them together. Lie the salmon fillet down on a big piece of plastic wrap with the skin side down. Spread the erythritol and salt mixture all over the salmon's skin. Spread chopped dill and crushed peppercorns out on top of the salmon. Use a lot of plastic wrap to cover the salmon. Cover the salmon with foil and put it in a shallow dish. Use something heavy to press down on it. Place the salmon in the fridge for 48 to 72 hours. Every 12 hours, flip it over and baste it with any juices that have gathered. Once the salmon is ready, take it out of the wrapper and run cold water over it to get rid of the extra salt mixture. You can use paper towels to dry. Add lemon juice, mustard, and mayonnaise to a small bowl. Mix them together to make the sauce. Add pepper and salt to taste. Cut the gravlax into thin slices and serve with the mustard sauce.
