What it is
Classic German grilled sausage (Bratwurst), typically made from pork, beef, or a mixture, seasoned and served hot. Traditionally comes with a bread roll or fries. This keto version focuses on the delicious sausage, sauerkraut, and a dollop of mustard.
Key ingredients
Bratwurst sausage (pork/beef), cooking oil/grilling, sauerkraut, mustard (Dijon or coarse-grain).
How to make it keto
Absolutely no bread roll (Brötchen) or fries. Request extra sauerkraut and specify a low-sugar mustard if possible (e.g., Dijon, not sweet Bavarian mustard).
Say this to the waiter (German)
Ist das Sauerkraut zuckerfrei? Bitte keinen süßen Senf. Sind in der Bratwurst Bindemittel enthalten?
Please ensure the Sauerkraut is sugar-free and no binders are in the Bratwurst. I'd like a non-sweet mustard, please.
Watch out for
Sausage fillers (some cheap sausages might have them, but quality Bratwurst is usually fine). Sweet mustards can be high in sugar. Sauerkraut may have trace sugars.
