What it is
Thin slices of beef rolled around a filling of bacon, onions, pickles, and mustard, then braised until tender. The traditional sauce is often thickened with flour and served with carb-heavy sides.
Key ingredients
Beef slices, bacon, onions, pickles (gherkins), mustard, beef broth, green beans, butter.
How to make it keto
Omit potato dumplings (Knödel) and sweetened red cabbage (Rotkohl). Ask if the sauce can be served without flour or gravy thickeners (sometimes a reduction is available, or a simple unthickened jus). Request green beans or broccoli as a side instead.
Watch out for
Flour-thickened sauce/gravy, sweetened red cabbage, hidden sugars in pickles (less common in German gherkins, but possible).
