Plnená paprika s mletým mäsom (bez ryže)
Stuffed Bell Peppers with Minced Meat (no rice, keto sauce)
Yes, with a tweak: request 'bez ryže v náplni' (without rice in the filling). About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Bell peppers generously stuffed with a savory mixture of minced meat (usually pork and/or beef), onions, and spices. Crucially, the traditional rice filling is omitted, and the accompanying tomato sauce is kept low-carb.
Key ingredients
Bell peppers, minced pork/beef, onions, eggs, spices, tomato puree (unsweetened), beef broth, heavy cream.
How to make it keto
Crucially, request 'bez ryže v náplni' (without rice in the filling). Confirm the tomato sauce is not sweetened with sugar and is not thickened with flour; ask for a cream or broth-based sauce if possible.
Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
Je mäsová plnka bez ryže? A paradajková omáčka bez pridaného cukru a bez múky na zahustenie?
Please confirm the meat filling is without rice. And the tomato sauce, without added sugar or flour thickeners?
Watch out for
Rice in the stuffing, added sugar in the tomato sauce, flour thickeners in the sauce.
