Keto Lahana Dolması (Ətsiz Düyü)
Cabbage Rolls with Meat Filling (No Rice)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request the filling to be made WITHOUT rice. About 12g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Tender blanched cabbage leaves generously stuffed with a savory mixture of minced lamb and/or beef, onions, and fresh herbs, then simmered in a light tomato-based sauce. Crucially, this keto version omits the traditional rice filling.
Key ingredients
Cabbage leaves, ground lamb/beef, onions, fresh herbs (dill, mint, parsley), salt, pepper, tomato paste, cooking oil, water/broth.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request the filling to be made WITHOUT rice. Confirm the sauce does not contain added sugar. A restaurant might use a small amount of sugar to balance tomato acidity, so specify no added sugar.
Watch out for
Rice in the filling (traditional version), added sugar in the tomato sauce, high-carb side dishes.
