Zapekaná Cuketa s Mäsom a Nízkosacharidovou Omáčkou
Baked Zucchini with Meat and Low-Carb Sauce
Yes, with a tweak: ensure tomato paste is low in sugar. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Layers of fresh zucchini baked with a hearty minced meat mixture (typically pork or beef), covered in a rich, creamy low-carb sauce made with heavy cream and/or sour cream, and topped with grated cheese until bubbly and golden.
Key ingredients
Zucchini, minced pork/beef, onions, garlic, bell peppers, low-sugar tomato paste, heavy cream, full-fat sour cream, grated hard cheese (e.g., Eidam), herbs (oregano, basil), salt, black pepper, olive oil.
How to make it keto
Ensure tomato paste is low in sugar. Confirm no flour or starch is used to thicken the sauce. Avoid high-carb vegetables in the meat mixture (e.g., carrots). Serve as a standalone dish.
Watch out for
Sugary tomato paste, flour/starch in the sauce, hidden high-carb vegetables in the meat mixture, large portions of onion.
