Pikitud Veisemaks (Keto Lisanditega)
Larded Beef Liver (with Keto Sides)
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no flour or sugar is used to thicken the sauce; request keto-friendly side vegetables instead of traditional starchy ones (e.g., potatoes, rice). About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Estonian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender beef liver larded with strips of pork fat or bacon, roasted or pan-fried until rich and flavorful. Served with a savory pan sauce, traditionally accompanied by potatoes, but modified for keto with cauliflower puree or sautéed green vegetables.
Key ingredients
Beef liver, bacon/pork fat, onion, beef broth, butter, herbs (e.g., marjoram, thyme), salt, black pepper. Keto sides typically include cauliflower puree, green beans, or asparagus.

Say this to the waiter (Estonian)
Pikitud Veisemaks: Palun, et kaste oleks jahu- ja suhkruvaba. Lisandiks palun keto-sõbralikke köögivilju, mitte tärkliserikkaid.
Pikitud Veisemaks: Please ensure no flour or sugar in the sauce. I'd like keto-friendly vegetables instead of starchy sides.
Watch out for
Flour/starch as a thickener in the sauce, hidden sugars in glazes or sauces, traditional high-carb side dishes (potatoes, gravy).
