Khavits
Adjarian Cheese and Butter Fondue
Yes, keto as served. About 4g net carbs per serving, lower than 6 in 10 Georgian dishes.
What it is
A luxurious Adjarian specialty, Khavits is essentially a rich, savory fondue made from local Adjarian cheese (often a mix of Imeruli and Sulguni) melted directly in copious amounts of browned butter. Served hot, it’s decadent and naturally keto.
Key ingredients
Imeruli cheese, Sulguni cheese, butter, salt.
Optional tweaks
Ensure no flour is added as a thickener, which is not traditional but can sometimes happen. Confirm it’s purely cheese and butter.
Watch out for
No significant carb risks if prepared authentically with just cheese and butter. Very rare addition of cornmeal or flour as thickener (non-traditional).
