Keto friendliness
Very challenging for keto; almost all meals are built around large portions of rice or noodles, and marinades rely heavily on liquid sugar.
Top ingredients
Plain grilled meats (like sate, but only if ordered without sauce) and stir-fried greens.
Danger zones
Kecap manis (a thick, syrupy sweet soy sauce used in almost everything), Nasi Goreng (fried rice), Mie Goreng (noodles), and sweetened peanut sauces.
Best for
Highly disciplined dieters who are comfortable ordering completely dry, unmarinated meats and skipping all traditional sauces.
