How to make it keto
Crucially, request no fruit-based sauces (e.g., cherry, orange) or sweet glazes. Ask for a simple natural jus (pan drippings) and a low-carb green vegetable like broccoli, asparagus, or spinach instead of potatoes or grain-based sides.
Say this to the waiter (French)
Pas de sauces aux fruits ni de glaçages sucrés, s'il vous plaît. Je voudrais un jus naturel simple et un légume vert comme le brocoli, les asperges ou les épinards, sans pommes de terre ou céréales.
No fruit-based sauces or sweet glazes, please. I'd like a simple natural jus and a green vegetable like broccoli, asparagus, or spinach instead of potatoes or grains.
Watch out for
Very high carb risk from common fruit sauces (e.g., fig, cherry, orange) and sweet glazes. Starchy side dishes. Ensure the jus is purely pan drippings or a light, unsweetened stock reduction.
