Key ingredients

How to make it keto
Request no sugary glazes. Ensure all side dishes are keto-friendly (e.g., green salad, steamed broccoli, sautéed spinach), and no flour-thickened gravies.
Say this to the waiter (Croatian)
Za svinjetinu, molim vas, bez šećernih glazura i umaka zgušnjavanih brašnom. Molim samo keto priloge.
For the pork, please no sugary glazes or flour-thickened gravies. Please ensure keto-friendly sides only.
