Low Carb Daikon Radish O’Brien

Leave a reply

Low Carb Daikon Radish O’BrienLow Carb Daikon Radish O’BrienLow Carb Daikon Radish O’Brien is a particularly versatile dish and will go with just about any meats. But where it really shines is with eggs for breakfast, which I eat for dinner. I call them super glorified hash browns and can also be used with left-over Prime Rib, Pulled Pork, or Lamb mixed in for a fabulous hash.  Wonderful served for breakfast on Christmas or Thanksgiving to kind of curb small appetites that may be trying to get into early morning candy but certainly sophisticated for the older palate. Don’t know it you can tell by the pictures but the radishes are cut to Brabant size.

Ingredients
  1. 2¼ Lbs Daikon Radish Cubed To Brabant Size
  2. ½ Lb Thinly Sliced Or Quartered Mushrooms (Optional)
  3. ½ Medium Yellow Onion Small Dice
  4. ½ Red Bell Pepper Small Dice
  5. ½ Yellow Bell Pepper Small Dice
  6. ½ Orange Bell Pepper Small Dice
  7. 3 T Olive Oil
  8. 4 T Butter
  9. 1 t Paprika
  10. 1 t Salt
  11. ¼ t Ground Pepper
  12. 2 T Green Onion Tops (As Garnish)
  13. 2 t Garlic Paste*** (Optional)
Instructions
  1. Peel Radish.
  2. Cut into approximate ½" cubes.
  3. I cut mine into ½" rounds, then into ½" strips for French fries, and then turn again for cubes.
  4. Parboil until fork tender, just like you would any potato.
  5. Drain well in a strainer.
  6. Cut all vegetables.
  7. To a large skillet add 2 T Olive Oil & 3 T Butter, heat to medium, add daikons and sauté cooking to a light brown, tossing every 4-5-minutes. They will take a while and it is the nature of the beast. Sprinkle with salt, pepper & paprika & mix well.
  8. In smaller sauté pan add remaining fats & vegetables and cook until just tender.
  9. Add veggies to daikons, mix well, taste, and correct any seasonings.

Notes
  1. I have given you a couple of optional ingredients because depending on what you may be eating with, this versatile side dish they can be added flavor. I happen to like mine with mushrooms and if you make them plain you can always add garlic later.

Low Carb Vegetable Pig In A Poke

Low Carb Vegetable Pig In A PokeLow Carb Vegetable Pig In A PokeLow Carb Vegetable Pig In A PokeLow Carb Vegetable Pig In A Poke. This is not much to look at but boy oh boy it sure is tasty.  Of course it is good for breakfast, especially if you have kids to feed, but many times I feel like eating breakfast for dinner.  Vegetable Pig In A Poke is pretty much a complete meal and so low in carbs you can “Pig” out on it. Last August when I returned to Ohio for my 50th (yes, that’s a big 50 and I am getting old) class reunion my hostess Karen made and served this to about 20 people.  Not being able to eat flour, I fixed myself a steak.  I did take one bite (only to be polite) and it was really good so…I kept it in the back of my mind thinking I might try it with Carbalose flour and heavy cream.  I  have enhanced it with vegetables. If you don’t want your family to get too hungry or eat too much candy before your Thanksgiving or Christmas dinners, you know the ones you spent hours & hours on, then this low carb carbalose flour vegetable pig in a poke is a great way to fill their bellies beforehand and if you have little kids tell them it’s a cowboy breakfast cause…it kind of is. These also make fabulous cold left-overs or great appetizers as seen in the 4th picture.

All my Carbalose Recipes are listed at the bottom of the Carbalose Informational Page.
