Jagnjeća Čorba od Kiselog Kupusa (Keto Modificirana)
Keto Lamb and Sauerkraut Soup
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no flour is used to thicken the soup. About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Bosnian/Herzegovinian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A hearty, sour soup featuring tender lamb chunks and tangy sauerkraut, simmered with onions, garlic, and paprika. Traditionally, a roux might be used for thickening; the keto version omits this.
Key ingredients
Lamb (e.g., neck, shoulder), sauerkraut, onions, garlic, paprika, olive oil/lard, bay leaf, black pepper, beef broth, sour cream (for serving, optional).
How to make it keto
Ensure no flour is used to thicken the soup. Confirm no rice or other grains are added. Request sour cream on the side for richness, if desired.
Say this to the waiter (Bosnian)
Molim vas, da se čorba ne zgušnjava brašnom i da nema riže ili drugih žitarica. Mogu li dobiti pavlaku sa strane?
Please ensure no flour is used to thicken the soup, and no rice or grains are added. Can I have sour cream on the side?
Watch out for
Flour-based roux for thickening, hidden sugars in cheap broths or tomato paste, small amounts of potatoes (uncommon in this specific soup but worth checking).
