How to make it keto
Request 'bez krompira' (without potatoes) or 'bez pomfrita' (without fries). Ask for a side of simple green salad with oil/vinegar or steamed non-starchy vegetables. Inquire about breading; ideally, it should be minimal (a light dusting of flour) or omitted (ask for 'keto paniranje' if available).
Say this to the waiter (Serbian)
Njegoški Odrezak, molim. Bez krompira ili pomfrita. Može zelena salata (ulje/sirće) ili kuvano povrće? Da li se panira?
