Gebakken Eendenborst (met Keto Rode Kool)
Pan-fried Duck Breast with Keto Braised Red Cabbage (No Sweet Sauces)
Yes, with a tweak: request no sweet sauces, potato sides, or fruit compotes. About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Dutch food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Crispy-skinned, pan-fried duck breast, served with a modified braised red cabbage (rode kool) where apples and sugar are largely omitted or replaced with keto-friendly alternatives (e.g., a tiny amount of apple cider vinegar, no sugar). Traditionally served with sweet sauces or potato croquettes, these are excluded.
Key ingredients
Duck breast, red cabbage, red wine vinegar, butter, duck fat, salt, pepper, optional keto-friendly sweetener, optional a few berries for garnish.
How to make it keto
Request no sweet sauces, potato sides, or fruit compotes. Ensure red cabbage is braised without sugar or apples, or with minimal, un-sweetened apple cider vinegar.
Say this to the waiter (Dutch)
Graag geen zoete sauzen, aardappelen of fruitcompotes. Let u erop dat de rode kool zonder suiker of appel is bereid?
No sweet sauces, potato sides, or fruit compotes, please. Ensure the red cabbage is made without sugar or apples.
Watch out for
Traditional braised red cabbage is often very high in sugar and apples. Some restaurants might use pre-made, sweetened red cabbage. Always confirm preparation.
