Pečená Kačica so Dusenou Kapustou (Bez Lokší)
Roasted Duck with Braised Red Cabbage (No Lokše/Potato Pancakes)
Yes, with a tweak: omit all potato-based sides (lokše). About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Crispy roasted duck, a celebratory dish, typically served with potato pancakes (lokše) and braised red cabbage. For keto, the lokše must be omitted, and the red cabbage should be prepared with minimal or no added sugar.
Key ingredients
Whole duck or duck breast/leg, red cabbage, onions, vinegar, caraway seeds, salt, pepper, lard/duck fat.
How to make it keto
Omit all potato-based sides (lokše). Confirm the braised cabbage is prepared without added sugar (or very minimal) and no flour thickeners.
Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
Žiadne lokše ani iné škrobové prílohy. Môžem poprosiť červenú kapustu bez pridaného cukru či ovocia, alebo s minimálnym množstvom?
No lokše or starchy sides, please. For the red cabbage, can it be prepared without added sugar or fruit, or with minimal amounts?
Watch out for
Lokše (major carb), significant added sugar in braised cabbage (common), flour thickeners in cabbage.
