Ping Ped
Grilled Duck
Yes, keto as served. About 2g net carbs per serving, lower than 9 in 10 Lao dishes.
What it is
Flavorful duck, often marinated with a blend of garlic, lemongrass, and fish sauce, then grilled to perfection, resulting in crispy skin and tender, juicy meat. A less common 'Ping' protein than chicken or pork.
Key ingredients
Duck (whole or pieces), lemongrass, garlic, fish sauce, salt, white pepper.
Optional tweaks
Ensure marinade contains no sugar or honey. Request without any sugary dipping sauces, or opt for a plain chili-lime-fish sauce dip.
