Gourounopoulo Psito
Roasted Suckling Pig
Yes, keto as served. Almost no net carbs per serving, lower than 9 in 10 Greek dishes.
What it is
Slow-roasted suckling pig, resulting in incredibly tender meat and crispy skin. A celebratory dish often found in tavernas specializing in roasted meats.
Key ingredients
Suckling pig, salt, pepper, herbs (e.g., oregano).
Optional tweaks
Request plain roasted meat and skin, without any sauces or gravies that might contain thickeners or sugar. Ensure no potatoes, rice, or bread are served.
Say this to the waiter (Greek)
Το Γουρουνόπουλο Ψητό, παρακαλώ σκέτο, μόνο κρέας και πέτσα. Όχι σάλτσες ή ζωμούς, και χωρίς πατάτες, ρύζι ή ψωμί.
I'd like the Gourounopoulo Psito plain, just roasted meat and skin. No sauces or gravies, and no potatoes, rice, or bread.
Watch out for
Potential for sugary marinades (unlikely for traditional whole roast), or carby gravies/sides. Stick to plain meat.
