How to make it keto
Absolutely no dumplings, rice, or any other starchy side. Request the sauce to be free of flour thickeners. Ask for a side of steamed non-starchy vegetables like green beans or broccoli.
Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
Prosím, bez knedlíkov, ryže a iných škrobových príloh. Namiesto toho poprosím parenú zeleninu a omáčku bez múky.
No dumplings, rice, or starchy sides, please. Can I have steamed green beans or broccoli instead? And no flour in the sauce.
Watch out for
Cream sauces are often thickened with flour. Standard sides are high-carb and must be avoided. Onions and mushrooms contribute minor carbs.
