Beef Stew with Bacon and Sauerkraut (Keto)
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no flour or starch thickeners are used. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Lithuanian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender chunks of beef are slow-simmered with smoky bacon (šoninė), tangy sauerkraut, and aromatic spices. This hearty stew is deeply flavored, combining the richness of meat with the characteristic sourness of fermented cabbage, perfect for a cold day.
Key ingredients
Beef stew meat, smoked bacon or pork belly (šoninė), sauerkraut, onion (small amount), beef broth, bay leaves, black peppercorns, caraway seeds, lard or butter.
How to make it keto
