Carne de Res Guisada con Vegetales sin Almidón
Stewed Beef with Non-Starchy Vegetables (Keto Style)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no rice, beans, or plantains. About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Dominican food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender pieces of beef stewed slowly in a rich, savory tomato-based sauce, vibrant with bell peppers, onions, garlic, and fresh herbs. This keto-modified version is served *without* traditional high-carb sides like rice, beans, or plantains. Request additional low-carb vegetables such as avocado or a side salad.
Key ingredients
Beef (e.g., chuck), tomatoes, tomato paste, bell peppers, onions, garlic, cilantro, sour orange/lime juice, olive oil, spices (oregano, cumin).
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no rice, beans, or plantains. Confirm no flour or starchy thickeners are used in the stew. Ask for a side salad (no croutons, oil/vinegar dressing) or sliced avocado. Watch for hidden sugar in tomato paste/sauce.
Watch out for
Root vegetables (potatoes, yuca) often added to traditional stews; flour/cornstarch thickeners in sauce; added sugar in tomato paste/sauce; traditional high-carb sides.
