What it is
A classic Central European dish featuring tender rabbit meat slow-braised in a rich and savory cream sauce. This preparation ensures the sauce is thick without starches and avoids high-carb vegetables.
Key ingredients
Rabbit meat, heavy cream, onions, bacon, chicken broth, cooking oil/butter, salt, pepper, bay leaf, thyme, mustard (Dijon or similar, sugar-free).
How to make it keto
Request that the cream sauce be prepared without any flour (zásmažka) or cornstarch as a thickener. Ensure no root vegetables (carrots, celery, parsnips) are used in the sauce base. Confirm any mustard used is sugar-free. Request a side of steamed green vegetables like broccoli or spinach instead of traditional potato or bread accompaniments.
Watch out for
Flour or starch thickeners in the cream sauce. Root vegetables are common in braised meat dishes. Hidden sugars in pre-made broths or mustards. Non-keto sides such as dumplings or potatoes.
