INGREDIENTS NOTES:
BEEF:
- We use beef that is 80% lean and 20% fat for optimal flavor & juiciness. We can also use lean beef but it may lead to dry patties.
EGGS:
- We use the eggs to keep the patties together without adding carbohydrates as it aids in binding the components.
PARMESAN CHEESE:
- Parmesan cheese aids in binding and adds an indulgent & umami taste. If you’d like, you can use another hard cheese in its place.
WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE:
- Worcestershire Sauce adds a light sweet and tangy feel in the meaty flavor. To make it keto-friendly, choose a brand that is low in sugar or sugar-free.
ONION & GARLIC POWDER:
- Onion and garlic powder give the patties a rich taste without adding moisture, which helps them maintain their shape.
BUTTER:
- Butter adds richness to the sauce by sautéing onions & mushrooms.
MUSHROOMS:
- We add the mushrooms in the gravy to give the earthy flavor and meaty texture which wonderfully balance the beef.
CHICKEN BROTH:
- We have to use a high-quality low-sodium broth to reduce salt and give the gravy depth.
HEAVY CREAM:
- Heavy Cream enhances the gravy’s richness and keto-friendliness by adding fat & creaminess.
XANTHAN GUM:
- Xanthan gum is a keto-friendly thickener that produces silky, smooth gravy without the additional carbs but we don’t have to overuse the xanthan gum.
