Curd is one popular food item that sits perfectly beside most Indian foods. We Indians just can’t do without our portion of curd in our meals. We make curd rice, and raita out of it, serve it with Biryani, marinate our meat in it, and whatnot.
Curd rice is something I can’t give up on, and my cravings to have it inspired me to prepare a recipe that can fit into the Keto lifestyle. Since you can’t have rice and regular curd in Keto Diet, I have replaced rice with cauliflower rice and regular curd with Greek Yogurt or hung curd and managed to get you a substitute of Curd rice that we all Keto people can have guilt-free.
My Keto Cauliflower Curd Recipe is light, tasty, easy-going, and can be eaten at any time of a day. It is very versatile in flavor and can be paired with all types of Keto Curries. I personally love to eat it with Keto Chicken Korma and Keto Saag Chicken.
It will give a sense of satisfaction to your taste buds. It simply adds brilliant south Indian flavors to any dish and even to a bland dal. Let’s jump straight to the quick recipe.
