Šopska Salata (Bez Dodatnog Šećera)
Shopska Salad (No Added Sugar Dressing)
Yes, with a tweak: confirm that the dressing contains no added sugar. About 8g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Montenegrin food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A popular, refreshing Balkan salad made with finely diced tomatoes, cucumbers, green bell peppers, and onions, generously topped with grated sirene cheese. Dressed simply with olive oil and vinegar.
Key ingredients
Tomatoes, cucumbers, green bell peppers, red onion, sirene cheese (feta-like), olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, black pepper.
How to make it keto
Confirm that the dressing contains no added sugar. Be mindful of portion sizes for tomatoes and bell peppers if strictly counting carbs, though a typical serving is generally fine for keto.
Say this to the waiter (Serbian)
Molim Šopsku Salatu. Možete li potvrditi da preliv nema dodatog šećera?
I'd like the Šopska Salata. Could you confirm the dressing has no added sugar?
Watch out for
Tomatoes and bell peppers contribute moderate carbs; excessive quantities can add up. Some restaurants might use dressings with hidden sugars, so confirm 'bez šećera' (without sugar).
