Salată Orientală Keto (Fără Cartofi)
Keto Oriental Salad (without Potatoes)
Yes, with a tweak: explicitly request no potatoes. About 5g net carbs per serving, lower than 7 in 10 Romanian dishes.
What it is
A refreshing and tangy salad, reimagined for keto by replacing potatoes with a vibrant mix of crisp radishes, crunchy celery, briny black olives, hard-boiled eggs, and sharp red onion, all dressed in a generous amount of olive oil and apple cider vinegar.
Key ingredients
Radishes, celery stalks, black olives, hard-boiled eggs, red onion, pickled cucumbers (dill pickles), extra virgin olive oil, apple cider vinegar, salt, black pepper, fresh dill.
How to make it keto
Explicitly request no potatoes. Confirm that the pickled cucumbers used have no added sugar.
