If you order it anyway
Confirm the Criolla sauce is prepared without added sugar. Request no starchy sides like rice or potatoes. Ensure the sauce is not thickened with flour.
Watch out for
Sugar in tomato-based sauces, high-carb vegetables (potatoes, carrots, corn) often served as sides or within the sauce, flour as a thickener.
