An improvised dish, something like a wet paella. Onions, garlic, carrot, some cubes of butternut squash, white fish, and seasoned with saffron, fennel, paprika, fish sauce, tomato paste, cayenne and dry sherry. A few handfuls of spinach at the end. Plus enough rice to thicken and absorb some of the juices. I eat moderately low carb - usually 75-100 grams a day. The rice in this probably adds about 10 grams of carb per portion, so I can easily accommodate that. In my view, the biggest problem with carbs like rice is the amounts most people consume them by. A regular portion of rice - say two cups - could easily rack up close to 100g of carb by itself. Follow that with dessert and a glass of pop on the side and you're really in trouble.
It was delicious, by the way.
