Slow-Cooked Meat and Keto Vegetables (Pechenya)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no potatoes. About 11g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Ukrainian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A comforting and hearty slow-cooked stew featuring tender chunks of meat (pork or beef) braised with non-starchy vegetables such as cabbage, bell peppers, and minimal carrots, all in a rich, savory broth. Potatoes are omitted for this keto version.
Key ingredients
Pork or beef, cabbage, bell peppers, onion, minimal carrots, minimal tomato paste, broth, spices, oil.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no potatoes. Confirm that non-starchy vegetables are emphasized. Ensure no flour is used as a thickener for the stew, and that any tomato paste used is unsweetened.
Watch out for
Carrots and onions contribute some carbs. Tomato paste can have hidden sugar. Potential for flour as a thickener. The main risk is potatoes, which are a traditional component and must be omitted.
