Keto friendliness
Maltese cuisine requires significant adaptation and careful menu choices to remain keto-compliant due to its reliance on starches.
Top ingredients
Excellent traditional keto ingredients include fresh fish, rabbit, local cheeses (ġbejniet), olives, and olive oil.
Danger zones
Beware of potatoes and bread found in almost all stews, soups (like Aljotta), side dishes, and the ubiquitous pastizzi or hobż biż-żejt.
Best for
This cuisine works best for flexible keto dieters comfortable with modifying orders and focusing on simple grilled or pan-fried proteins and plain vegetables.
