Wildragout (ohne Beilagen)
Game Ragout (without starch sides)
Yes, with a tweak: request no starchy sides (Knödel, Spätzle, Nudeln, Erdäpfel). About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Austrian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A tender and aromatic stew made from succulent cubes of game meat (such as venison, wild boar, or roe deer), slow-cooked in a rich sauce with minimal root vegetables, red wine, and traditional spices like juniper berries and thyme. Served keto by strictly omitting all high-carb sides like bread dumplings (Knödel), noodles, or potatoes, focusing entirely on the flavorful meat and sauce.
Key ingredients
Game meat (venison, wild boar), onions, carrots (minimal), celery (minimal), red wine, beef broth, lard/oil, juniper berries, bay leaf, thyme, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Request no starchy sides (Knödel, Spätzle, Nudeln, Erdäpfel). Confirm that carrots and celery are used very sparingly within the sauce, and not served as a significant side. Ensure no flour or sugar is used to thicken or sweeten the sauce.
Say this to the waiter (German)
Wildragout bitte, ohne stärkehaltige Beilagen. Sind Karotten und Sellerie nur sparsam in der Soße, nicht als Beilage? Keine Mehlbindung oder Zucker in der Soße?
Wildragout, please, no starchy sides. Are carrots and celery used very sparingly in the sauce, not as a side? No flour or sugar in the sauce?
Watch out for
Carbs from red wine, minimal root vegetables in the sauce (carrots, celery), potential flour thickeners, or hidden sugars in the sauce. Restaurant portions may contain more vegetables in the stew for visual appeal.
