Bitoque com Ovo Estrelado e Salada
Steak with Fried Egg and Salad
Yes, with a tweak: absolutely no fries ('sem batatas fritas') and no rice ('sem arroz'). About 5g net carbs per serving, lower than 6 in 10 Portuguese dishes.
What it is
A classic Portuguese comfort dish featuring a pan-fried thin steak, topped with a fried egg. Traditionally served with fries and rice, this keto version omits the starchy sides and is accompanied by a fresh green salad with olive oil and vinegar dressing. Often served with a simple pan sauce from the steak juices.
Key ingredients
Thin beef steak, egg, olive oil, garlic (optional), white wine (optional for sauce), mixed greens, tomato, onion, vinegar, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Absolutely no fries ('sem batatas fritas') and no rice ('sem arroz'). Request a simple side salad with oil and vinegar dressing. Confirm the steak sauce, if any, is simple (e.g., pan juices, garlic, wine) and has no flour thickeners or added sugar.
Watch out for
Fries and rice are standard accompaniments and must be explicitly omitted. Sauce could contain flour thickeners or hidden sugars (unlikely for Bitoque's simple sauce, but good to check). Salad dressing may have sugar if not requested separately.
