Braised Beef with Keto Guinness Reduction
Slow-Cooked Beef with Stout Reduction and Keto Greens
Yes, with a tweak: ensure the Guinness is thoroughly reduced to minimize carb content. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for English food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender chunks of beef slowly braised in a rich, deeply flavored sauce made with Guinness stout. For the keto version, the Guinness is heavily reduced to concentrate its flavor and cook off most of the carbohydrates and alcohol. The sauce is thickened naturally through reduction or with minimal keto-friendly thickener, served with rich braised greens instead of potatoes.
Key ingredients
Beef chuck or similar cut, Guinness stout (heavily reduced), beef broth, onions (minimal), garlic, thyme, bay leaf, olive oil, butter, salt, black pepper. Served with braised savoy cabbage or kale.
How to make it keto
Ensure the Guinness is thoroughly reduced to minimize carb content. Confirm no flour or starch is used for thickening the sauce. Request no potatoes or high-carb vegetables, opt for braised greens instead.
Watch out for
Unreduced stout (high carb), flour/starch thickeners, high-carb vegetables, hidden sugars in stocks.
