Borscht (Keto, No Potatoes)
Ukrainian Beet Soup (Keto, No Potatoes)
Yes, with a tweak: request the complete omission of potatoes and beans. About 13g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Ukrainian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A vibrant and hearty beet soup, made with a rich beef or pork broth, beets, cabbage, and aromatic herbs. This keto version omits traditional potatoes and beans, served with a generous dollop of high-fat sour cream.
Key ingredients
Beef or pork broth, beets, cabbage, onion, carrots (minimal), low-sugar tomato paste, dill, bay leaf, sour cream, optional beef/pork pieces.
How to make it keto
Request the complete omission of potatoes and beans. Ask for minimal carrots. Verify no added sugar in the tomato paste or broth.
Watch out for
Potatoes, beans, and excessive carrots/beets in traditional recipes. Hidden sugars in some restaurant-prepared broths or tomato paste. Beets themselves contribute moderate carbs.
