Estrogonofe de Carne com Cogumelos e Creme de Leite (sem Arroz e Batata Palha)
Beef Stroganoff with Mushrooms and Cream, without Rice and Shoestring Potatoes
Yes, with a tweak: request no rice and no 'batata palha' (shoestring potatoes). About 8g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A popular Brazilian interpretation of beef stroganoff, featuring tender strips of beef and mushrooms sautéed with onions and garlic, then simmered in a rich sauce made primarily with heavy cream, a touch of tomato paste, and mustard. Served without its traditional high-carb accompaniments.
Key ingredients
Beef (e.g., sirloin, filet mignon), heavy cream, fresh mushrooms, onion, garlic, butter/oil, Dijon mustard, minimal tomato paste, salt, black pepper. Brandy or white wine for deglazing (optional).
How to make it keto
Crucially, request no rice and no 'batata palha' (shoestring potatoes). Confirm the sauce is thickened with cream reduction, not flour or cornstarch. Ask for minimal or no tomato paste and no ketchup, as these are significant sources of sugar and carbs in restaurant versions.
Watch out for
Flour or cornstarch thickeners in the sauce, high sugar content from tomato paste or ketchup (very common in Brazilian stroganoff), incidental carbs from onions and mushrooms, alcohol carbs if using wine/brandy, hidden sugars in mustard.
