Say this to the waiter (Arabic)
أوسبان الكيتو، من فضلك استخدم أرز القرنبيط أو خضروات قليلة الكربوهيدرات للحشوة بدلاً من الأرز العادي. وتأكد من قلة معجون الطماطم أو عدمه، وبدون سكر مضاف.
For the Keto Osban, please use cauliflower rice or low-carb vegetables for the stuffing, not regular rice. Confirm minimal or no tomato paste and no added sugar.
Watch out for
Traditional rice stuffing, excessive tomato paste/sauce, hidden sugar in sauce.
