How to make it keto
Request without potatoes and chuño. Inquire about any thickeners or sugars in the sauce for the stewed version. Ask for a plain green salad or steamed/sautéed low-carb vegetables.
Say this to the waiter (Spanish)
Por favor, el Conejo Estrellado sin papas ni chuño. ¿La salsa lleva harina, almidón o azúcar? ¿Podría acompañarlo con una ensalada verde simple o vegetales al vapor bajos en carbohidratos?
Please serve the Conejo Estrellado without potatoes or chuño. Is there any flour, starch, or sugar in the sauce? I'd like a plain green salad or steamed low-carb vegetables instead.
Watch out for
Flour/starch thickeners in the stew, hidden sugars in spice pastes, high-carb vegetable garnish.
