What it is
Flavorful beef or lamb meatballs (kefta) simmered in a rich tomato sauce, often finished with cracked eggs cooked directly in the tagine. A hearty and satisfying dish, modified for keto by ensuring no added sugars in the sauce.
Key ingredients
Ground beef/lamb, eggs, crushed tomatoes, onions, garlic, olive oil, fresh cilantro, parsley, cumin, paprika, salt, pepper.
If you order it anyway
Ensure 'no sugar added' to the tomato sauce. Request 'no potatoes or other root vegetables' if they are sometimes added. Ask for 'no bread' on the side.
Watch out for
High risk of hidden sugars in the tomato sauce. Onions, garlic, and tomatoes contribute natural carbs. Ensure no breading is used in the meatballs (unlikely for authentic kefta, but worth checking).
