How to make it keto
CRITICAL: Request 'no sugar' and 'no cornstarch/thickener' for the satay sauce. Ask for extra peanuts instead of sugar for sweetness/texture. Ask to omit or minimize high-carb vegetables like onions/bell peppers if desired.
Say this to the waiter (Chinese)
沙爹牛肉的沙爹酱不要放糖,不要勾芡。花生可以多放点,洋葱和灯笼椒请不要放或少放。
For the 沙爹牛肉, please make sure the satay sauce has no sugar and no cornstarch. Can I have extra peanuts instead, and omit onions/bell peppers?
Watch out for
HIGH RISK from traditional satay sauce which contains significant sugar and sometimes thickeners. Ensure these are explicitly omitted. Peanuts are fine in moderation, but large amounts can add carbs. High fat from cooking oil.
