Chashurma (Keto Modified)
Megrelian Offal Stew with Matsoni
Yes, with a tweak: no flour or cornmeal thickeners must be used. About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Georgian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A rich and creamy Megrelian offal stew, traditionally made with lamb or beef offal (liver, heart, lungs) simmered in a sauce often thickened with flour or cornmeal and enriched with matsoni (Georgian yogurt). The keto version omits starches, relying on the natural thickening of the matsoni and reduction for a rich texture.
Key ingredients
Lamb/beef offal (liver, heart, lungs), onions, garlic, matsoni (unsweetened), fresh cilantro, fenugreek, red pepper, salt, black pepper, ghee/butter.
How to make it keto
Crucially, no flour or cornmeal thickeners must be used. Confirm no starches are used in the sauce. Ensure matsoni is plain and unsweetened.
Watch out for
Matsoni can have some natural carbs; avoid any added sugars. Risk of flour/cornmeal thickeners if not explicitly requested to omit.
