Pečené bravčové s dusenou kapustou
Roasted Pork with Stewed Cabbage and Keto Sides
Yes, with a tweak: omit all potato-based sides (knedľa, boiled potatoes, lokše). About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Succulent roasted pork, often pork shoulder or neck, served alongside stewed sauerkraut or red cabbage. This keto modification ensures the cabbage is prepared without added sugar and replaces traditional potato dumplings (knedľa) or potatoes with keto-friendly vegetables.
Key ingredients
Pork roast (shoulder or neck), lard or oil, salt, pepper, caraway seeds. Stewed cabbage (sauerkraut or red cabbage, cooked with onions, bacon fat, and spices like caraway).
How to make it keto
Omit all potato-based sides (knedľa, boiled potatoes, lokše). Confirm the stewed cabbage is prepared without sugar. Request extra butter or oil on the pork.
Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
