Sac İçi (Keto)
Mixed Grilled Meats & Selected Vegetables on Sac
Yes, with a tweak: request to omit or severely limit potatoes, tomatoes, and other high-carb vegetables. About 14g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Azerbaijani food, so watch the portion.

Key ingredients
Assorted meats (lamb, beef, chicken), eggplant, onions, bell peppers (small amount), cooking oil (butter or vegetable oil), salt, pepper, herbs.
