What it is
A classic Brazilian plate featuring a grilled steak (often sirloin or tenderloin) topped with a perfectly fried egg. The key for keto is to explicitly omit the traditional accompaniment of French fries.
Key ingredients
Steak cut (e.g., sirloin), eggs, cooking oil/butter, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request no French fries. Ask for keto-friendly sides such as plain grilled or steamed vegetables, or a small green salad with oil and vinegar.
