Bife com Ovo Estrelado e Salada Verde
Portuguese Steak with Fried Egg and Green Salad
Yes, with a tweak: request no fries/potatoes. About 6g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A classic Portuguese steak, pan-seared to your liking, and traditionally topped with a fried egg. This keto adaptation replaces the customary side of fries or rice with a crisp green salad dressed with olive oil and vinegar.
Key ingredients
Beef steak (e.g., sirloin, rump), egg, olive oil or butter, garlic, white wine (for sauce), bay leaf, green salad (lettuce, cucumber), salt, pepper, vinegar.
How to make it keto
Request no fries/potatoes. Ask for a simple green salad (no corn, chickpeas) with olive oil and vinegar dressing on the side. Confirm no flour or other thickeners in the pan sauce.
Say this to the waiter (Portuguese)
O Bitoque, por favor, sem batatas fritas ou arroz. Pode ser com uma salada verde simples, molho de azeite e vinagre (sem açúcar)? O molho da carne não tem farinha?
No fries or rice with the Bitoque, please. A simple green salad with oil and vinegar dressing (no sugar) as a side. Is the steak sauce flour-free?
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in the pan sauce, white wine reduction, sugary salad dressings, cross-contamination if cooked on shared surfaces with carby items.
