Telecí pečeně (bez příloh)
Roast Veal (without sides)
Yes, with a tweak: request no flour or starch is used to thicken the pan juices or gravy. About 4g net carbs per serving, lower than 7 in 10 Czech dishes.
What it is
Tender slices of slow-roasted veal, seasoned simply, often served with its natural pan juices. A lighter but equally satisfying alternative to heavier roasts.
Key ingredients
Veal roast (e.g., leg or shoulder), salt, pepper, minimal root vegetables (for aromatic purposes during roasting, typically discarded), beef broth/water.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request no flour or starch is used to thicken the pan juices or gravy. Omit all traditional high-carb sides like potatoes or dumplings. Ask for a side of steamed or sautéed low-carb vegetables (e.g., broccoli, asparagus).
Say this to the waiter (Czech)
Telecí pečeně, prosím, šťávu bez mouky a škrobu. Bez brambor či knedlíků. Místo toho prosím dušenou nebo restovanou zeleninu, například brokolici či chřest.
For Telecí pečeně, please make the pan juices without flour or starch. No potatoes or dumplings. Can I have steamed or sautéed low-carb vegetables like broccoli or asparagus instead?
