Keto Daging Rebus Asam Jawa
Keto Beef Boiled in Tamarind Gravy
Yes, with a tweak: essential to confirm no added sugar in the broth. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Malaysian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender beef chunks slowly simmered in a tangy and savory tamarind-based broth with aromatic herbs and spices, prepared without added sugar.
Key ingredients
Beef, tamarind pulp, lemongrass, galangal, chili, herbs
How to make it keto
Essential to confirm no added sugar in the broth. Use minimal tamarind paste for tanginess, as tamarind itself has some carbs. Ensure no starchy vegetables are added during the simmer. This is a stew, not a sauce, so thickening agents are less common, but still worth confirming.
