How to make it keto
CRITICAL: Request NO rice, NO fries, NO bread. Ask for a simple side salad (cucumber, tomato, onion with olive oil and lemon) or plain grilled vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant).
Say this to the waiter (Arabic)
البروشيت، هل التتبيلة بدون سكر؟ من فضلك بدون خبز، أرز أو بطاطس مقلية. ممكن خضار مشوية إضافية بدلاً منها؟
Are the Brochettes made without sugary marinade? Please serve without bread, rice, or fries. Can I have extra grilled vegetables instead?
Watch out for
Marinades can sometimes contain sugar; inquire if possible. Ensure no sweet sauces or glazes are used post-grilling. The side salad contributes minimal carbs, but a large portion could add up.
