Vietnamese Crab and Asparagus Soup (Sup Mang Cua)
This is a ketofied version of a classic comfort food that will warm your belly and your soul. I like to eat mine with extra thai chilis for some sass. The main swap is the xanthan gum for cornstarch – this gives you the same result without the carbs.
