Bifes a Caballo (Keto Modificado)
Grilled Steak Topped with Fried Eggs (with Keto Sides)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly omit french fries. About 3g net carbs per serving, lower than 8 in 10 Uruguayan dishes.
What it is
An iconic Uruguayan comfort food, featuring a perfectly grilled steak (bife) generously topped with one or two sunny-side-up fried eggs. Traditionally accompanied by french fries, this keto modification replaces the fries with a suitable low-carb alternative, focusing on the delicious steak and egg combination.
Key ingredients
Beef steak (e.g., churrasco, bife de chorizo), eggs, olive oil or butter (for frying eggs), salt, pepper.
How to make it keto
Explicitly omit french fries. Request a side green salad with oil and vinegar, or grilled vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, or asparagus (if available).
Watch out for
High-carb side dishes, potential sugary marinades on the steak (uncommon for plain bife).
