Hearty Braised Kale with Smoked Pork Loin, Pinkel Sausage, and Bacon (No Potatoes)
Yes, with a tweak: ask for no boiled potatoes (Salzkartoffeln). About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for German food, so watch the portion.
What it is

Key ingredients
Fresh kale, smoked bacon, onions, Kassler (smoked pork loin), Pinkel sausage, beef/vegetable broth, lard/oil, salt, pepper, mustard.
How to make it keto
Crucially, ask for no boiled potatoes (Salzkartoffeln). Ensure no sugar is added to the kale during cooking (common in some preparations). The kale itself, especially with long cooking and onions, will have some carbs.
Watch out for
Potatoes are a standard side. Sugar added to kale. Onions used in cooking. Fillers in sausages.
