Hovädzí Guláš s Keto Prílohami
Beef Goulash with Keto Sides (No Dumplings)
Yes, with a tweak: strictly 'bez knedle' (without dumplings). About 14g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A rich and deeply flavored beef stew made with generous amounts of onions, sweet paprika, caraway seeds, and beef broth, slow-cooked until the meat is tender. Typically served with flour-based dumplings (knedľa), which must be avoided for keto. Instead, pair with low-carb vegetable sides.
Key ingredients
Beef (chuck, shank), onions, sweet paprika, lard/oil, garlic, caraway seeds, tomato paste (small amount), beef broth, salt, pepper. Served with a side of green salad or steamed non-starchy vegetables.
How to make it keto
Strictly 'bez knedle' (without dumplings). Ask for 'zeleninovú prílohu' (vegetable side) such as steamed broccoli, cauliflower, or a plain green salad with oil and vinegar dressing. Confirm minimal flour for thickening the goulash sauce.
Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
Hovädzí Guláš, prosím, bez knedle. Ako prílohu si prosím zeleninu na pare (brokolicu, karfiol) alebo zelený šalát s olejom a octom. Omáčka nech je zahustená s minimom múky.
