Recipe: Thai-Style Omelet (ไข่เจียว) and Keto Flatbread Inspired by Naan

Ingredients:

For the Thai-Style Omelet (ไข่เจียว):

• 2 large eggs
• 1 tbsp fish sauce or soy sauce
• 1 tbsp coconut oil (or any preferred oil)

For the Keto Flatbread:

• 1/2 cup almond flour
• 2 tbsp coconut flour
• 1/4 tsp xanthan gum
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 cup plant-based butter (or regular butter)
• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup warm water
• Pinch of salt

Creamy Avocado Sauce:

• 1 ripe avocado
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Make the Keto Flatbread:

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, and salt.
2. Add in the butter, egg, and warm water. Mix until you form a dough.
3. Divide the dough into two portions and flatten each portion into a round, naan-like shape.
4. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the flatbreads for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden and cooked through.

2. Prepare the Thai-Style Omelet (ไข่เจียว):

1. Beat the eggs and fish sauce (or soy sauce) together.
2. Heat the coconut oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
3. Pour the egg mixture into the pan, allowing it to spread out like an omelet. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges are crispy and the center is cooked through. Flip if necessary.

3. Make the Creamy Avocado Sauce:

1. Mash the avocado in a bowl.
2. Add olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper, and mix well until creamy.

Optional: Thai-Style Dipping Sauce (Nam Pla Prik)
