Keto friendliness

Moroccan cuisine can be adapted to keto with careful selection and modification, primarily by avoiding high-carb accompaniments and specific stew preparations.

Top ingredients

Lamb, beef, chicken, fish, olive oil, olives, eggs, zucchini, eggplant, bell peppers, tomatoes, and a wide array of spices like cumin, turmeric, and ginger are excellent keto choices.

Danger zones

Avoid couscous, khobz (bread), chickpeas, lentils, dried fruits (prunes, apricots) commonly found in sweet tagines, potatoes, and sugary mint tea.

Best for

This cuisine works best for keto dieters who enjoy rich, spiced meat and vegetable dishes and are comfortable asking for modifications to omit carb-heavy sides and ingredients.

What to drink

Drinks you will see at Moroccan restaurants, cafés and stalls, rated the same way as the food.
