Gicz Wołowa Duszona z Warzywami Niskowęglowodanowymi
Braised Beef Shank with Low-Carb Vegetables
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no flour or starch is used to thicken the braising liquid/sauce. About 8g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Polish food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender beef shank, slow-braised until it falls off the bone, served in its rich, natural gravy. Accompanied by low-carb vegetables that complement the hearty meat.
Key ingredients
Beef shank, beef broth, onion, celery, bell pepper, garlic, bay leaf, allspice, salt, black pepper, lard/oil.
How to make it keto
Ensure no flour or starch is used to thicken the braising liquid/sauce. Request accompanying vegetables to be strictly low-carb (e.g., cauliflower, broccoli, green beans, asparagus), cooked simply in butter/oil without sugary glazes or starches.
Say this to the waiter (Polish)
Poproszę Gicz Wołową z sosem bez mąki i skrobi. Do tego niskowęglowodanowe warzywa, prosto przygotowane, bez glazury.
Please ensure the sauce for the Gicz Wołowa has no flour or starch. I'd like low-carb vegetables, simply prepared, no glazes.
Watch out for
Flour or starch thickeners in the sauce, inclusion of high-carb root vegetables (carrots, potatoes) in the braise, high-carb side dishes.
