Segedínsky Guláš s Dusenou Kapustou
Pork and Sauerkraut Stew with Braised Cabbage
Yes, with a tweak: omit all bread or potato dumplings (knedľa). About 14g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A creamy, tangy, and rich stew made with tender pork shoulder, generous amounts of fermented sauerkraut, onions, paprika, and often a touch of sour cream. Traditionally served with dumplings, these are replaced with extra braised cabbage for a keto version.
Key ingredients
Pork shoulder, sauerkraut, onions, lard/oil, paprika, caraway seeds, sour cream, beef broth, salt, pepper. Side: Braised cabbage.
How to make it keto
Omit all bread or potato dumplings (knedľa). Request a side of plain braised cabbage or extra sauerkraut. Confirm no flour is used as a thickener in the stew.
Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
Bez chleba a knedle, prosím. Môžem dostať obyčajnú dusenú kapustu alebo extra kyslú kapustu? Je guláš zahustený bez múky?
No bread or dumplings, please. Can I have plain braised cabbage or extra sauerkraut instead? And is the stew thickened without flour?
Watch out for
Similar to traditional goulash, watch for flour thickeners. Braised cabbage can sometimes be sweetened. Ensure sour cream has no added sugar.
