Lülə və Tikə Kabab Platter-ı ləvəşsiz, çörəksiz və düyüsüz istərdim. Əvəzinə əlavə manqal tərəvəzləri (badımcan, bibər kimi) mümkündürmü?

Watch out for
Hidden sugars in marinades (unlikely for traditional kebab but possible). Traditional high-carb side dishes (bread, rice, potatoes) are often served by default and must be omitted.
