Pork Loin with Braised Cabbage (no Potatoes)
Yes, with a tweak: request no potatoes (zemiaky) or dumplings (knedľa). About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender pan-fried or roasted pork loin, served with a generous portion of rich, flavorful braised cabbage. The cabbage can be either sauerkraut or fresh, often prepared with onions and bacon.
Key ingredients
Pork loin, oil/lard, salt, pepper. Braised cabbage: sauerkraut or fresh cabbage, onions, bacon/pork belly, caraway seeds, salt, vinegar (optional), sugar (potential).
How to make it keto
Request no potatoes (zemiaky) or dumplings (knedľa). Explicitly ask if the braised cabbage has sugar added and request it be omitted or minimized.
Watch out for
Sugar in braised cabbage (a common preparation method in Slovak cooking), flour/starch thickeners in any pan sauce for the pork, high-carb traditional sides.
