What it is
A classic Brazilian comfort food, featuring tender diced beef in a rich savory sauce, traditionally served with a fried egg and a generous portion of sautéed green vegetables. This keto version explicitly omits the high-carb accompaniments like rice, farofa, and fried banana.
Key ingredients
Diced beef (e.g., filet mignon or similar tender cut), onions, garlic, tomatoes, bell peppers, beef broth, olive oil, salt, pepper, bay leaf, fried egg, mixed green vegetables (e.g., zucchini, green beans, spinach), fresh herbs.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no rice, no farofa, and no fried banana. Confirm the sauce is not thickened with cornstarch or flour, or request a simple reduction. Ensure green vegetables are strictly low-carb.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in pre-made tomato sauces or broths. Flour/cornstarch used as thickeners in the sauce. High-carb vegetables if not specified (e.g., potatoes, peas).
