Zemplínska keto fazuľová polievka s údeným mäsom a smotanou (s karfiolom)
Zemplín-style Keto Bean Soup with Smoked Meat and Cream (with cauliflower)
Yes, with a tweak: ensure beans are replaced with cauliflower, minimal root vegetables, and no flour thickening. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Slovak food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A keto-adapted version of the traditional Zemplín bean soup. Instead of beans, tender cauliflower florets are used to provide texture, simmered with smoked pork, root vegetables (in moderation), and finished with a generous swirl of cream, capturing the authentic flavor without the carbs.
Key ingredients
Smoked pork (e.g., collar, ribs), cauliflower, onion, garlic, carrot (minimal), celery root (minimal), heavy cream, bay leaf, marjoram, vinegar (for sourness), salt, black pepper, lard.
How to make it keto
Ensure beans are replaced with cauliflower, minimal root vegetables, and no flour thickening. Confirm no added sugars.
Watch out for
Smoked meat curing sugars, cream (lactose), onion/garlic, minimal root vegetables (ensure truly minimal), potential for hidden thickeners.
