Кето Агнешка чорба от главички
Keto Lamb Head Stew
Yes, with a tweak: mUST ensure no flour or rice is used for thickening. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Bulgarian food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A traditional, rich and flavorful lamb head stew, slow-cooked until tender. Modified for keto by omitting starchy thickeners and rice, focusing on the succulent meat, spices, and a creamy, tangy egg-yogurt 'zastroika' (temper).
Key ingredients
Lamb head meat, onions, garlic, carrots (minimal), red peppers (minimal), eggs, yogurt, vinegar, fresh herbs (dill, parsley), black pepper, red paprika.
How to make it keto
MUST ensure no flour or rice is used for thickening. Request a pure egg-yogurt 'застройка' (temper) or simply a clear broth. Minimal carrots and peppers to keep carbs low.
Say this to the waiter (Bulgarian)
Моля, чорбата да е без брашно и ориз. Предпочитам застройка от яйце и кисело мляко или бистър бульон, с малко моркови и чушки.
Please ensure the soup has no flour or rice. I'd prefer a clear broth or egg-yogurt temper, with minimal carrots and peppers.
Watch out for
Traditional recipes often use flour for thickening, rice, or higher amounts of carrots/potatoes. Hidden sugars in tomato paste (if used).
