Say this to the waiter (Portuguese)
Para o Molho Madeira, por favor, sem farinha, amido ou açúcar. Apenas redução natural. Como acompanhamento, espinafre refogado ou aspargos assados.
Please ensure the Molho Madeira has no flour, cornstarch, or added sugar, just naturally reduced. I'd like sautéed spinach or roasted asparagus as sides.
Watch out for
Flour or cornstarch used as a thickener in the Madeira sauce. Some restaurants might add sugar to the sauce. High-carb sides like rice or mashed potatoes.
