What it is
A rich and savory Qatari lamb stew, traditionally made with lentils, now reimagined as a keto-friendly dish by omitting lentils and focusing on tender lamb pieces and a generous selection of low-carb vegetables (e.g., spinach, zucchini) simmered in a spiced tomato broth. Hearty and satisfying without the carbs.
Key ingredients
Lamb meat, spinach, zucchini, onions, garlic, fresh tomatoes, unsweetened tomato paste, olive oil/ghee, mixed Qatari spices (e.g., cumin, coriander, turmeric, black pepper, loomi, cinnamon), salt, fresh herbs (e.g., cilantro).
How to make it keto
Crucially, omit all lentils. Request additional keto-friendly vegetables such as spinach, zucchini, or green beans to replace the bulk of the lentils. Confirm no added sugars in tomato base. Served without rice or bread.
