Keto Përshesh me Lulelakër dhe Mish Pule
Keto Përshesh with Cauliflower and Chicken
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly confirm no bread or any starchy fillers. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Albanian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A keto adaptation of the traditional Përshesh, replacing bread with riced cauliflower. Shredded chicken (often from a roasted chicken) is mixed with cauliflower 'rice' and rich chicken broth, herbs, and butter, creating a comforting, savory dish.
Key ingredients
Chicken (roasted and shredded), cauliflower (riced), chicken broth, butter, olive oil, herbs (e.g., parsley, oregano), salt, black pepper.
How to make it keto
Explicitly confirm no bread or any starchy fillers. Ensure the cauliflower 'rice' is used as a base and not mixed with regular rice. Confirm no sugar in the broth.
Say this to the waiter (Albanian)
