Köttbullar med Gräddsås (Keto-anpassad)
Swedish Meatballs with Cream Sauce (Keto-Modified)
Yes, with a tweak: request no potatoes or traditional sugary lingonberry jam. About 9g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Classic Swedish meatballs, typically made with a small amount of binder (e.g., breadcrumbs), served smothered in a rich, creamy sauce. For keto, it's essential to omit the traditional mashed potatoes and lingonberry jam. The focus is on the savory meatballs and generous cream sauce.
Key ingredients
Ground beef and pork mixture, egg, onion, heavy cream, butter, beef broth, salt, pepper, spices. (Potential minimal breadcrumbs in meatballs).
How to make it keto
Request no potatoes or traditional sugary lingonberry jam. Confirm minimal or no breadcrumbs in the meatballs and no flour or sugar in the cream sauce. A very small serving of sugar-free lingonberry compote or fresh lingonberries might be tolerated by some.
Watch out for
Breadcrumbs in meatballs (if not specified as keto-friendly), flour/starch thickeners in cream sauce, hidden sugars in sauce or for sautéing onions.
