What it is
Thick slices of traditional Bavarian meatloaf (a type of fine ground meat baked in a loaf pan), pan-fried until golden, often served with a fried egg. This keto version omits starchy sides and is paired with a simple green salad.
Key ingredients
Leberkäse (finely ground beef/pork, spices), cooking oil, egg, mixed green salad, vinaigrette (oil, vinegar, salt, pepper).
How to make it keto
Request to omit all starchy sides (e.g., fried potatoes, mashed potatoes, bread roll). Ensure salad dressing is oil and vinegar-based without added sugar.
Say this to the waiter (German)
Zum Leberkäse bitte kein Brot, Kartoffelsalat oder Brezel. Ich hätte gerne einen Beilagensalat mit Öl und Essig, oder gegrilltes Gemüse.
For the Leberkäse, please no bread, potato salad, or pretzel. I'd like a side salad with oil and vinegar, or grilled vegetables.
Watch out for
Fillers (starch) in Leberkäse (usually minimal but check), sugary salad dressings, traditional potato/bread sides.
