How to make it keto
Request no sugary marinades or fruit-based sauces (e.g., lingonberry jam, cranberry sauce often served with game). Ask for creamy, flour-free sauces and low-carb vegetable sides (e.g., cauliflower purée, green vegetables).
Say this to the waiter (Finnish)
Saisinko Hirvenfileen ilman sokerimarinadia tai hedelmäkastikkeita? Lisukkeeksi kermaisen, jauholittoman kastikkeen ja vähähiilihydraattisia kasviksia, kuten kukkakaalipyreetä.
Please prepare the Hirvenfilee without sugary marinades or fruit sauces. I'd like a creamy, flour-free sauce and low-carb vegetables, like cauliflower purée.
Watch out for
Sugary marinades/glazes, fruit jams/sauces, flour thickeners in sauces, high-carb side dishes (potatoes, root vegetables).
