Okroshka (Keto-Modified, No Kvass/Potatoes)
Keto Cold Summer Soup with Kefir and Meat
Yes, with a tweak: absolutely no kvass (fermented bread drink) and no potatoes. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Ukrainian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A refreshing cold soup, perfect for summer, made with a creamy kefir base, diced cooked meat (beef/chicken/sausage), hard-boiled eggs, and fresh low-carb vegetables. Modified by replacing kvass with kefir and omitting potatoes.
Key ingredients
Kefir (full-fat), cooked beef/chicken/sausage (e.g., doktorskaya kolbasa), hard-boiled eggs, radish, cucumber, fresh dill, green onion, salt, mustard (sugar-free).
How to make it keto
Absolutely no kvass (fermented bread drink) and no potatoes. Confirm the use of kefir or buttermilk as the base. Ask to ensure any sausage used is low-carb without fillers.
Watch out for
Kvass (main carb source), potatoes, high-carb sausages with fillers/sugars, hidden sugars in mustard.
