Give your favorite dip a fun twist! Low carb Asian guacamole is slightly spicy, seasoned with ginger, sesame seeds, and Sriracha!
Asian Guacamole
If you love classic guacamole with a spicy twist, then this Asian guacamole will become your new favorite way to make it!
I made keto guacamole and still love how that turned out, but this time I gave it more flavor and even more heat.
My favorite things about Asian foods are the umami flavors they have, and I added these flavors to the guac. In addition to the avocados, jalapeno, and cilantro, I added ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame seeds.
For the heat, I drizzled it with Sriracha sauce. This takes a mere ten minutes to make and is perfect every single time!
Keto Guacamole
There are a bunch of different ways to eat guacamole. Spread it on top of some keto toast. Use it as a spread on a keto-friendly sandwich. Eat it like a dip with your favorite veggies or keto crackers.
When it comes to Asian guacamole, I like to eat it like a dip with my favorite keto crackers. If you want to eat it like a meal, then add a bit more protein – like some shredded chicken or pork.
This is a dip that’s full of healthy fats that will fuel your body and keep it in fat-burning mode.
Spicy Guacamole
It’s really easy to make the guacamole as mild or as spicy as you like it. If you follow the directions as they are written, the dip has a medium level of heat. To make it milder, leave out the jalapeno and don’t add any Sriracha.
Do you want to light up your tastebuds without adding more carbs? Then add some dried red pepper flakes. Start out with just a little bit, because it doesn’t take much to really make this guacamole spicy!
What To Eat With Guacamole
This is a high-fat side dish or appetizer. It doesn’t stand up as a meal by itself. I suggest adding your favorite Chinese or Asian entree with it.
If you’re going to serve it at a party, then add more fun appetizers to the side. Keto sweet and sour meatball kabobs will taste perfect with the dip. And everyone loves keto shrimp egg roll in a bowl.
How Long Does Guacamole Last
Typically, fresh guacamole only lasts about a day or two. If you add some lemon juice, it can last a bit longer, but the avocado will start to turn brown.
This is why I suggest eating it as soon as you make it and only making as much as you think you will eat.
Can you freeze guacamole? No, I don’t recommend freezing it. After it thaws, the guacamole will change texture and it won’t be as delicious. Make it fresh, it will taste better this way.
