Dorset Jugged Steak (Keto-Modified)
Slow-Cooked Beef with Mushrooms, Bacon & Keto Vegetables
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no flour or cornstarch is used to thicken the gravy. About 7g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A traditional Dorset dish, this involves slow-cooking chunks of beef steak in a rich, savory gravy with mushrooms, onions, and bacon. The keto version omits traditional flour-based thickeners and any high-carb vegetables, focusing on the tender beef, rich sauce (thickened naturally or with a small amount of xanthan gum), and keto-friendly accompaniments like braised greens or celeriac mash.
Key ingredients
Beef stewing steak, mushrooms, streaky bacon, onions (minimal), beef broth, red wine (cooked off), garlic, thyme, bay leaf, olive oil, butter, salt, black pepper. Served with braised greens (e.g., kale, spinach).
How to make it keto
Ensure no flour or cornstarch is used to thicken the gravy. Confirm no high-carb vegetables (carrots, potatoes) are included. Request a side of keto-friendly vegetables.
Watch out for
Flour/cornstarch thickeners in gravy, inclusion of high-carb vegetables, sugars in ready-made sauces or stocks.
