How to make it keto
Omit all potato or bread-based sides (Kartoffelklöße, Semmelknödel). Request gravy to be free of flour or starch thickeners. Ask for a low-carb vegetable side.
Say this to the waiter (German)
Zur Rinderroulade bitte die Soße ohne Mehl oder Stärke andicken. Keine Knödel oder Spätzle. Stattdessen hätte ich gerne Blaukraut (ohne Zucker) oder einen kleinen grünen Salat.
For the Rinderroulade, please serve the gravy unthickened (no flour/starch). No dumplings or spaetzle. I'd like braised red cabbage (no added sugar) or a side green salad instead.
Watch out for
Gravy (flour/starch thickeners, hidden sugars from reduction or added ingredients), pickles (some brands contain sugar), onions (trace carbs from braising).
