Key ingredients
Beef (or rooster), olive oil, canned tomatoes, onion, garlic, red wine, cinnamon stick, cloves, bay leaf, cauliflower rice, salt, pepper, grated hard cheese (e.g., Kefalotyri or Parmesan).
How to make it keto
This is a modified dish. Confirm the restaurant can prepare a version using cauliflower rice or can serve the stew without any carby accompaniment like pasta or rice.
