Údená Krkovička s Kyslou Kapustou a Horčicou
Smoked Pork Neck with Sauerkraut and Mustard
Yes, with a tweak: omit potatoes (zemiaky) or potato dumplings (knedľa). About 14g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Tender and flavorful smoked pork neck, a robust Slovak specialty. Traditionally served with unsweetened sauerkraut and a dollop of sharp mustard.
Key ingredients
Smoked pork neck, sauerkraut (fermented cabbage), onions (for cooking sauerkraut), cooking fat, salt, pepper, mustard (Dijon or traditional).
How to make it keto
Omit potatoes (zemiaky) or potato dumplings (knedľa). Confirm that the sauerkraut is 'kyslá kapusta' (sour cabbage) and not 'sladká' or 'sladkokyslá' (sweet or sweet and sour) which would contain sugar.
Say this to the waiter (Slovak)
Bez zemiakov a knedle, prosím. Je tá kyslá kapusta naozaj kyslá, nie sladká alebo sladkokyslá?
No potatoes or potato dumplings, please. Is the sauerkraut truly sour, not sweet or sweet and sour?
Watch out for
Traditional potato/dumpling sides, sweetened sauerkraut.
