How to make it keto
Crucially, request no potato, yucca, yautía, ñame, auyama (pumpkin), or green plantain in the stew. Ensure no flour or cornstarch is used as a thickener. Served 'solo' (alone) or with a simple side of leafy greens.
Watch out for
Traditional thickening with starchy root vegetables, tomato paste with added sugar, hidden sugars in pre-made seasoning blends.
