Ale Braised Steak with Keto Greens
Slow-Cooked Steak in Rich Gravy with Keto Vegetables
Yes, with a tweak: request that any ale used is heavily reduced or a keto-friendly alternative for flavour is used. About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for English food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender beef steak slow-braised in a rich, savory gravy, significantly reduced to minimize carb content from the ale. Served with a selection of steamed or buttered keto-friendly green vegetables like broccoli and green beans, instead of traditional accompaniments.
Key ingredients
Beef steak (e.g., chuck, skirt), onions, garlic, mushrooms, beef broth, small amount of dark ale (e.g., stout, porter), Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, bay leaf, thyme, butter, olive oil, salt, black pepper, keto-friendly green vegetables (e.g., broccoli, green beans, spinach).
How to make it keto
Request that any ale used is heavily reduced or a keto-friendly alternative for flavour is used. Ensure no flour or starch is added to thicken the gravy. Confirm vegetables are non-starchy. Omit any potato or root vegetable sides.
Watch out for
Hidden starches or flour in gravy, high-carb vegetables if substituted (e.g., carrots, parsnips), residual sugars from ale if not fully reduced, sugar in some Worcestershire sauce brands.
