What it is
A classic French Sunday roast, typically a leg of lamb studded with garlic and rosemary, slow-roasted to tender perfection. The exterior often forms a beautiful crust. Usually served with potatoes or gratin, but easily adaptable for keto.
Key ingredients
Lamb leg, garlic, rosemary, olive oil, salt, pepper, lamb jus, green beans/broccoli (for keto side).
How to make it keto
Request no roasted potatoes, gratin dauphinois, or other starchy sides. Ask for green vegetables (e.g., green beans, broccoli, asparagus) sautéed in butter or olive oil. Confirm no sugary glazes in jus.
Watch out for
Primary carb risks are the traditional potato-based sides (roasted potatoes, gratin). Sauces or jus might contain flour thickeners or added sugars.
