Grilled Beef/Lamb Skewers with Keto Sides
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no bread, rice, or potato sides. About 8g net carbs per serving.
What it is
Flavorful skewers of marinated and grilled cubes of beef or lamb, often seasoned with a blend of Moroccan spices such as cumin, paprika, and ginger. Traditionally served with bread and sometimes high-carb salads or rice, these must be replaced with low-carb vegetable sides for a keto meal.
Key ingredients
Beef/Lamb, onions, parsley, cilantro, cumin, paprika, ginger, olive oil, salt, pepper. (Restaurant sides might include simple green salad, grilled bell peppers, or eggplant.)
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no bread, rice, or potato sides. Ask for a simple green salad (dressing on the side) or grilled low-carb vegetables (like bell peppers, eggplant, zucchini) as substitutes. Confirm no sugary marinade is used.
Say this to the waiter (Arabic)
من فضلك، بدون خبز أو أرز أو بطاطس. أريد سلطة خضراء (الصلصة على جنب) أو خضروات مشوية بدلاً منها. وتأكد لي ما في تتبيلة سكرية.
No bread, rice, or potatoes. Please substitute with a green salad (dressing on the side) or grilled low-carb vegetables. Confirm no sugary marinade.
Watch out for
Sugary marinades (less common in traditional Moroccan brochettes, but possible). Standard high-carb side dishes.
