How to make it keto
Explicitly request no potatoes, rice, bread, or other starchy sides. Confirm no sugar in marinades or sauces. Opt for simple pan juices over gravy.
Say this to the waiter (Slovenian)
Prosim brez krompirja, riža ali kruha. Potrdite, da v marinadi ali omaki ni sladkorja. Raje bi imel preproste sokove od pečenja namesto omake.
Please, no potatoes, rice, or bread. Confirm no sugar in the marinade or sauce. I'd prefer simple pan juices instead of gravy.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in marinades/rubs, starchy thickeners in pan juices/gravy, common high-carb side dishes (potatoes, rice, bread).
