Keto friendliness
Adapting Albanian cuisine to keto requires constant vigilance and significant modification, as many staple dishes are carb-heavy.
Top ingredients
Excellent choices include grilled meats (lamb, beef, chicken), feta cheese, eggs, and non-starchy vegetables like cucumbers, peppers, and tomatoes.
Danger zones
Beware of omnipresent bread, pilaf (rice), byrek (savory phyllo pies), fasule (bean dishes), and potatoes which are common in stews and as sides.
Best for
This cuisine best suits flexible keto dieters comfortable with custom orders and strict avoidance of common starch-based staples.
