How to make it keto
Request gravy without flour/starch thickeners. Ask for steamed or sautéed green vegetables (e.g., green beans, broccoli, spinach) instead of potatoes, dumplings, or red cabbage (which often contains sugar).
Say this to the waiter (German)
Die Soße bitte ohne Mehl oder Stärke. Dazu hätte ich gerne gedämpftes oder gebratenes grünes Gemüse, keine Kartoffeln, Knödel oder Blaukraut.
Please serve the gravy without flour or starch. I'd like steamed or sautéed green vegetables, no potatoes, dumplings, or red cabbage.
Watch out for
Gravy thickeners (flour/starch), hidden sugars in gravy, sweet vegetables (like carrots or red cabbage often served with it).
