Sweet Mustard Cream – Make this first

This is a light and fluffy mustard cream sauce – The teen aptly describes it as mustard whipped cream 😎. I haven’t seen this sauce anywhere else.

That doesn’t mean it isn’t somewhere online, but I guarantee it’s impressive.

• Put the heavy cream in a bowl, and beat it until stiff peaks form.
• Use another separate bowl to mix the mayo, mustard, allulose, and tarragon well. Then fold gently into the whipped cream until just blended and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Pan fry the Mahi Mahi

• Season the fillets with salt and pepper.
• Heat a frying pan and butter over medium heat until hot and the butter bubbles. Sear the Mahi Mahi filets for about two minutes on each side.

Don’t be tempted for cook the delicate fillets for much longer or they will dry out.

• Place the fish fillets on a warm plate and dollop with sweet mustard cream sauce. Serve any extra sauce on the side.

Add a few capers or a sprinkling of dill if you have those items on hand.

And the low carb/ keto-friendly pan-fried mahi-mahi ready to serve!

This is the perfect meal after a long, intense week.
