Key ingredients
Beef (stewing cuts), onions, paprika (sweet, smoked), tomato paste (small amount for color/flavor), beef broth, cooking oil, salt, pepper, bay leaf, marjoram, side of steamed broccoli/green beans.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request no flour or starch thickeners for the sauce. Omit potato dumplings (Knödel), pasta (Spätzle/Nudeln), or boiled potatoes. Ask for steamed low-carb vegetables as a side.
Watch out for
Traditional goulash is heavily thickened with flour. Served almost universally with high-carb sides. Some tomato paste and high quantities of onions can add carbs.
