Tibs-o-Laban
Thickened Dried Yogurt Dip
Yes, keto as served. About 10g net carbs per serving.
What it is
A rich and tangy dip made from thickened, often sun-dried, full-fat yogurt, similar to a very firm labneh. It has a concentrated creamy texture and a distinct sour flavor, often drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with dried mint.
Key ingredients
Full-fat plain yogurt (strained and/or dried), olive oil, dried mint, salt.
Optional tweaks
None typically needed for the dish itself. Ensure it is served with low-carb dippers (e.g., cucumber slices, bell pepper strips) or as a side to a main dish, not with bread.
Say this to the waiter (Arabic)
للتيبس ولبن، من فضلك قدمها مع خضار للغمس مثل الخيار، وليس مع خبز.
For Tibs-o-Laban, please serve with low-carb dippers like cucumber, not bread.
Watch out for
Natural lactose from yogurt. Ensure no hidden sugars or starches are used as thickeners, which is unlikely for this dish but worth confirming.
