Stewed Ox Cheeks with Keto Root Vegetable Puree
Yes, with a tweak: request no flour/starch thickeners in the stew gravy. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Irish food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Slow-braised ox cheeks, incredibly tender and rich, simmered in a savory broth with herbs, served with a creamy puree of celeriac or cauliflower instead of traditional mashed potato.
Key ingredients
Ox cheeks, beef stock, red wine (optional, small amount for flavor), herbs (thyme, bay leaf), onion, garlic, celeriac or cauliflower, heavy cream, butter, olive oil, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Request no flour/starch thickeners in the stew gravy. Confirm puree is strictly celeriac or cauliflower, not potato or parsnip. Ensure no high-carb root vegetables (e.g., carrots) are included in the stew.
Watch out for
Flour/starch thickeners in stew, traditional root vegetables (carrots, potatoes) in stew, sugar in tomato paste/wine if used excessively, potato/parsnip puree served instead of keto alternative.
