There's a few tricks to the various components of low-carb meals.

With broccoli, fragrant sesame oil, fresh garlic (small quantity), soy.

Red cabbage ball - takes several hours to cook, with spices including cloves, juniper berries, cinnamon etc but complements meat dishes several days after.

White cabbage ball - cooks much quicker, is done in perhaps 40 minutes. Add caraway seeds, nutmeg, (green) pepper.

Both of the cabbage types (there are others) require a large weapon of a knife to safely prepare. Many youtube videos about this.

Tomatoes fried in olive oil to go with your eggs.

Possibly not for everyone but I find I can compensate for the lack of carbs in a dish with extra condiments.

Oh bags of frozen peas from the supermarket. You might think it's cheating, but how long would it take to pull all those little balls out of fresh pea pods.. Anyway the advantage here is that peas are one of the few "vegetables" which is high in protein. It's probably not technically a vegetable but it's green. So basically use where you might otherwise use rice, to accompany a meat or fish dish.

Hope something helpful for you here need to expand my own cooking repertoire. The recent article on ROK inspired me too to cut the wheat and bread, has been a while since I've more strictly followed this stuff, but getting back to it now.

Thanks for the info. Which RoK article? I haven't seen it.

Thanks.
