Zwiebelrostbraten mit Speckbohnen
Swabian Onion Roast Beef with Bacon Green Beans
Yes, with a tweak: ensure the gravy is not thickened with flour or starch. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for German food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A tender pan-fried roast beef steak, typically top sirloin or ribeye, served with a generous topping of caramelized onions and a rich gravy. Accompanied by bacon-wrapped green beans.
Key ingredients
Beef steak, onions, beef broth, red wine (small amount, reduced), bacon, green beans, butter/oil, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Crucially, ensure the gravy is not thickened with flour or starch. Request bacon-wrapped green beans or plain steamed low-carb vegetables instead of traditional Spätzle or potato sides.
Watch out for
Flour/starch thickeners in gravy, traditional high-carb sides (Spätzle, potato croquettes), very rarely sugar in caramelized onions (though usually natural).
