What it is
A robust and savory dish featuring wild boar meat, cut into chunks and skewered. The meat is traditionally marinated in a simple blend of onions, salt, pepper, and sometimes pomegranate juice (used sparingly or reduced to a glaze for keto) or dry wine, then grilled over an open flame until tender and slightly charred.
Key ingredients
Wild boar meat (e.g., loin or shoulder), onions, salt, black pepper, (optional: dry red wine or small amount of pomegranate juice for marinade, ensuring no sugar added).
Optional tweaks
Ensure marinades are free of added sugar. Typically served without bread or carby sides, ask for a simple fresh herb garnish instead.
Watch out for
Trace carbs from marinade ingredients (onions, pomegranate juice if used).
