What it is
A flavorful and rustic goat stew, a popular specialty in Brazil's Northeast. Tender pieces of cabrito (young goat) are slow-cooked in a rich, aromatic broth with onions, garlic, bell peppers, and tomatoes, seasoned with regional spices. Served alongside a selection of low-carb vegetables instead of traditional starchy sides.
Key ingredients
Goat meat, onions, garlic, bell peppers, tomatoes, olive oil, spices (e.g., cumin, paprika), cilantro, salt, black pepper, low-carb vegetables (e.g., broccoli, green beans, zucchini).
How to make it keto
Ensure no starchy thickeners are used in the stew. Request it be served without high-carb vegetables like potatoes or carrots, and explicitly omit rice or pirão.
Watch out for
Hidden starches or sugar in the stew base or tomato sauce. High-carb vegetables like potatoes or cassava often accompany traditional stews.
