Kremasta Jagnjeća Čorba od Glava i Nogu (Keto Verzija)
Creamy Keto Lamb Head and Foot Soup

What it is
A very traditional, rich, and intensely flavorful Serbian 'bela čorba' (white soup) made from slowly simmered lamb heads and feet. This process extracts abundant collagen, resulting in a naturally gelatinous and nourishing broth. It's finished with egg yolks and sour cream for a creamy texture, without any flour.
Key ingredients
Lamb heads, lamb feet, onions, garlic, celery (in small, keto-friendly amounts), bay leaf, black pepper, salt, egg yolks, full-fat sour cream (pavlaka), a touch of vinegar or lemon juice for acidity.
Optional tweaks
Confirm with the restaurant that no flour or other starch is used for thickening the soup.
