What it is

A simple yet satisfying dish of tender pieces of lamb or beef slowly fried and then stewed with a generous amount of caramelized onions. The meat becomes meltingly tender and flavorful. Traditionally served as a topping for pilaf, but served on its own for keto.

Key ingredients

Lamb or beef (cubed), onions, butter or oil, salt, pepper, turmeric.

How to make it keto

Explicitly request no rice or bread. Ensure no flour is used to thicken.

Watch out for

Always served with rice/pilaf, so omission is crucial. Over-caramelization of onions might add more sugars, but generally within keto limits for a dish like this.
