How to make it keto
Explicitly request to omit flatbread (lepinja) and french fries. Request a side of steamed or grilled low-carb vegetables (e.g., broccoli, zucchini, bell peppers) instead.
Say this to the waiter (Serbian)
Ćevapi, molim. Apsolutno bez lepinje i pomfrita. Može li umesto toga bareno ili grilovano povrće sa niskim udelom ugljenih hidrata?
Ćevapi, please. Absolutely no lepinja or french fries. Can I have steamed or grilled low-carb vegetables instead?
Watch out for
Hidden fillers in Ćevapi mix (rare but possible), sugary marinades (unlikely for traditional Ćevapi), high-carb side dishes (bread, fries, ajvar with sugar).
