Daube Provençale (Keto Modified)
Provençal Beef Stew with Low-Carb Vegetables
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no carrots or potatoes are added. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for French food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A slow-braised beef stew from Provence, traditionally made with red wine, vegetables, and sometimes orange zest. This keto version omits high-carb vegetables like carrots and potatoes, focusing on tender beef, rich red wine reduction, olives, and a medley of keto-friendly vegetables like mushrooms, celery, and bell peppers. The sauce is naturally thickened through reduction, without flour or cornstarch.
Key ingredients
Beef chuck or short ribs, red wine (dry), beef broth, olive oil, garlic, onions (small amount), celery, mushrooms, bell peppers, black olives, herbs de Provence, orange zest (minimal), bay leaf, thyme, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Ensure no carrots or potatoes are added. Confirm the sauce is not thickened with flour or cornstarch. Request a side of non-starchy vegetables like green beans or broccoli instead of traditional accompaniments.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in broth or pre-made sauces, excessive use of onions, trace thickening agents in restaurant kitchens.
