Pečené Koleno s Nakladanou Zeleninou
Roasted Pork Knuckle with Pickled Vegetables (Keto)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no bread or potatoes. About 8g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A very large, slow-roasted pork knuckle with crispy skin and tender meat. Traditionally served with bread and sometimes potatoes, for keto it's served with a generous portion of pickles, horseradish, and mustard. The beer used for basting evaporates most of its carbs.
Key ingredients
Pork knuckle, salt, pepper, garlic, caraway seeds, beer (for basting, minimal residual carbs), bay leaf, mustard, horseradish, pickled cucumbers, pickled peppers.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no bread or potatoes. Confirm no sugary glazes are used on the knuckle. Focus on the meat and pickled vegetable sides.
