How to make it keto
Crucially, omit frites or mashed potatoes. Ask for a side of steamed or grilled green vegetables like green beans, asparagus, broccoli, or a simple green salad with olive oil and vinegar. Confirm sauces (e.g., béarnaise, bordelaise) are keto-friendly (no flour/sugar added).
Say this to the waiter (French)
Sans frites ni purée, s'il vous plaît. Des légumes verts vapeur/grillés ou une salade verte simple (huile d'olive/vinaigre). Les sauces sont-elles sans farine/sucre ?
No frites or mashed potatoes. Green vegetables or green salad (olive oil/vinegar). Are sauces like béarnaise flour/sugar-free?
