How to make it keto
Crucially, request no added sugar. Ask for a minimal amount of onions and tomatoes in the gravy base to keep net carbs low. Ensure no potatoes or other high-carb vegetables are substituted or added.
Watch out for
Onions and tomatoes are essential for the gravy but add carbs. Bottle gourd itself has some natural sugars. Hidden sugars in commercial spice blends or restaurant gravy bases are a risk.
