What it is
A Bolivian classic featuring a large, tender pan-fried beef steak topped with one or two fried eggs. Traditionally served with rice and fried potatoes, this keto version omits those starchy sides. Request it with a simple green salad or sautéed low-carb vegetables instead. The steak is typically well-seasoned and cooked with generous oil or butter.
