Keto Jingyalov Hats (Herbed Egg Crêpe)
Armenian Herbed Egg Crêpe/Omelet
Yes, with a tweak: ensure no traditional flour-based dough is used. About 10g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A low-carb interpretation of the famous Karabakh herb-filled flatbread. Instead of a traditional dough, this version uses a thin egg-based crêpe or omelet as a wrapper for a generous mixture of fresh Armenian herbs like spinach, sorrel, parsley, cilantro, dill, and scallions, pan-fried to perfection.
Key ingredients
Eggs, fresh spinach, sorrel, parsley, cilantro, dill, scallions, olive oil, salt, black pepper. (Optionally, a very small amount of almond flour for texture).
How to make it keto
Ensure no traditional flour-based dough is used. Confirm the base is purely egg-based, possibly with a minimal amount of almond flour. Request extra olive oil or butter for frying. Verify no high-carb vegetables are added in large quantities (e.g., potatoes).
