Beef Steaks with Cream and Green Pepper Sauce (Keto)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no potatoes or rice. About 7g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Pan-fried beef steaks served with a rich, creamy sauce made with green peppercorns and heavy cream. Traditionally served with fries and rice, this keto version omits those sides and focuses on the protein and sauce.
Key ingredients
Beef steak (e.g., sirloin, rump), heavy cream, green peppercorns, olive oil/butter, brandy (optional), beef broth, salt, pepper. May be served with a side of sautéed greens or asparagus.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no potatoes or rice. Confirm sauce contains no flour or sugar thickeners (unlikely in classic versions but always worth checking). Request keto-friendly side like sautéed spinach, greens, or asparagus.
Watch out for
Sauce thickeners (flour), hidden sugars in sauce, high-carb sides (fries, rice).
