Teleći Repovi u Saftu (Keto Verzija)
Braised Oxtail in Sauce (Keto Version, no flour/starch)
Yes, with a tweak: request no flour or starch in the sauce. About 9g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Serbian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender oxtail slow-braised until it falls off the bone, in a rich, savory sauce. The keto version ensures the sauce is thickened naturally by reduction and fat, without added flour or starches, and minimal root vegetables.
Key ingredients
Oxtail, beef broth, red wine (optional), onion, garlic, tomato paste (minimal), bay leaf, herbs (thyme, rosemary), olive oil, salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Request no flour or starch in the sauce. Ensure no potatoes or carrots are added, or if they are, they are minimal and can be avoided.
