Irish Wild Boar Chops with Juniper Berry Sauce and Braised Red Cabbage (Keto)
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no added sugar in the juniper berry sauce (red wine reduction can be low carb, but check for sugar in stock). About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Irish food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Flavorful Irish wild boar chops, pan-seared or grilled, served with an aromatic juniper berry sauce and slowly braised red cabbage, modified for a keto diet.
Key ingredients
Wild boar chops, juniper berries, beef stock, dry red wine (minimal for flavour, alcohol evaporates), butter, red cabbage, apple cider vinegar, salt, black pepper, olive oil.
How to make it keto
Ensure no added sugar in the juniper berry sauce (red wine reduction can be low carb, but check for sugar in stock). Confirm red cabbage is braised without apples or added sugar, using only vinegar and seasoning.
Watch out for
Flour/cornstarch as a thickener in the sauce; traditional braised red cabbage often contains apples or sugar; hidden sugars in marinades or sauces; pre-made stocks can contain sugar.
