Holúbky (Keto Verzia)
Stuffed Cabbage Rolls (No Rice) in Tomato Sauce
Yes, with a tweak: no rice in the meat filling. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender cabbage leaves wrapped around a savory ground meat filling (typically pork and/or beef) and simmered in a flavorful tomato sauce. A comforting dish, easily adapted for keto by removing the rice from the stuffing.
Key ingredients
Cabbage leaves, ground pork and/or beef, onions, garlic, eggs, spices, tomato passata/sauce, lard/oil, smoked paprika, sour cream (optional topping).
How to make it keto
Crucially, no rice in the meat filling. Confirm the tomato sauce is low-sugar or sugar-free. Ask for no bread side. Traditionally sour cream can be added, which is keto-friendly.
Watch out for
Rice in the meat filling, high sugar content in tomato sauce, served with bread.
