Unbreaded Pork Schnitzel with Creamy Mushroom Sauce and Keto Sides

What it is
A pan-fried, unbreaded pork cutlet served with a rich, creamy mushroom sauce. Traditionally served with potatoes or Spätzle, these must be omitted. Request green vegetables like broccoli or green beans as a substitute.
Key ingredients
Pork cutlet, heavy cream, mushrooms, onions, butter, oil, spices. Keto sides would include broccoli or green beans.
How to make it keto
Ensure pork is unbreaded ('Natur' version). Request no thickeners (flour/starch) in the mushroom cream sauce. Omit all traditional starchy sides (potatoes, Spätzle, bread). Ask for a side of non-starchy vegetables cooked in butter or oil.
