Say this to the waiter (Dutch)
Graag de kruidenboter zonder bloem of zetmeel. Enkel groene groenten, geen aardappelen, rijst of zetmeelrijke puree, alstublieft.
Ensure herb butter is not thickened with flour/starch. I'd like only green vegetables, no potatoes, rice, or starchy purees.
Watch out for
Flour/starch used in butter sauce, sugary glazes, or high-carb side dishes (fries, mashed potatoes, rice).
