Hovädzie na Smotane s Brokolicou
Beef in Cream Sauce with Broccoli
Yes, with a tweak: confirm the cream sauce contains no flour or starch thickeners. About 13g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender pieces of beef simmered in a rich, creamy sauce. This modified version ensures the sauce is thickener-free and served with a non-starchy vegetable side.
Key ingredients
Beef (sirloin or similar cut), heavy cream, onions, garlic, beef broth, butter, salt, pepper, served with steamed broccoli.
How to make it keto
Confirm the cream sauce contains no flour or starch thickeners. Request no traditional sides like dumplings (knedľa). Ask for steamed broccoli or other green vegetables.
Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
Potvrdíte, že smotanová omáčka neobsahuje múku ani škrob? Žiadne knedle. Prosím k tomu dusenú brokolicu alebo inú zelenú zeleninu.
Confirm cream sauce is without flour or starch thickeners. No knedľa. I'd like steamed broccoli or other green vegetables as a side.
Watch out for
Cream sauces are often thickened with flour. Root vegetables (carrots, celery) are sometimes pureed into the sauce base, adding carbs. Traditional dumpling sides are high carb.
