Tajine de Joue de Boeuf
Beef Cheek Tagine
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no potatoes, carrots, or other starchy vegetables are added. About 14g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Moroccan food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Succulent beef cheeks, slow-braised to melting tenderness in a rich Moroccan spiced sauce, often with a base of onions, garlic, and ginger. A deeply flavorful and comforting dish.
Key ingredients
Beef cheeks, olive oil, onions, garlic, ginger, turmeric, cumin, paprika, saffron, cilantro, parsley, beef broth (ensure no thickeners), salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Ensure no potatoes, carrots, or other starchy vegetables are added. Confirm no sugar is used, especially if onions are caramelized. Request extra olive oil.
Watch out for
Caramelized onions (can add significant sugar), starchy thickeners in sauce (e.g., flour), accidental addition of high-carb vegetables.
