Crucially, omit the boiled potatoes. Request extra butter or a side of steamed/sautéed low-carb vegetables instead. Ensure onions are caramelized slowly without added sugar (as is traditional, but confirm).
Say this to the waiter (Norwegian)
Til Seibiff med løk, takk uten kokte poteter. Jeg vil gjerne ha ekstra smør eller lavkarbo-grønnsaker i stedet. Bekreft at løken er karamellisert uten tilsatt sukker.

Watch out for
Boiled potatoes. Potential for sugar to be added to 'caramelize' onions quickly, or high-carb vegetable sides.
