How to make it keto
Ensure no rice is added. Confirm no flour or starchy thickeners are used. Request extra meat and olive oil for higher fat content. Specify low tomato content to minimize carbs.
Say this to the waiter (Bulgarian)
Моля, без ориз, брашно или нишестени сгъстители. Може ли повече месо и зехтин, и съвсем малко домати?
Please ensure no rice, flour, or starchy thickeners. Can I have extra meat and olive oil, and very little tomato?
