Jagnjetina ispod Sača sa Povrćem
Lamb Cooked Under the Bell with Vegetables (No Potatoes)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request 'bez krompira' (without potatoes). About 7g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Tender lamb, slow-cooked under a metal bell (sač) with various vegetables. The meat becomes incredibly succulent, absorbing the flavors of the vegetables and its own juices. Traditionally served with potatoes, which must be omitted.
Key ingredients
Lamb shoulder or leg, olive oil, onions, garlic, bell peppers, carrots (limited), celery, rosemary, bay leaf, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request 'bez krompira' (without potatoes). Ensure root vegetables like carrots are kept to a minimum or omitted if strictly counting carbs.
Watch out for
Potatoes (must be omitted), significant amounts of root vegetables like carrots or parsnips if included, potential thickeners in cooking liquid (unlikely for authentic sač but always ask).
