How to make it keto
CRITICAL: Request 'no rice' explicitly for the filling. Confirm no sugar in the tomato sauce/paste.
Say this to the waiter (Armenian)
Դոլմայի միջուկի մեջ խնդրում եմ բրինձ չլինի։ Նաև հաստատե՛ք, որ լոլիկի սոուսը շաքար չի պարունակում։
For the Dolma, please ensure no rice in the filling. Also, confirm there is no sugar in the tomato sauce.
Watch out for
RICE IS THE PRIMARY RISK. Hidden sugar in tomato paste/sauce. High amounts of onion.
