Riyash Ghanam
Grilled Lamb Chops (with keto sides)
Yes, with a tweak: request to omit rice, fries, or any carb-heavy sides. About 4g net carbs per serving, lower than 7 in 10 Syrian dishes.
What it is
Succulent lamb chops, marinated simply and grilled to perfection. Naturally keto-friendly, the focus should be on requesting appropriate sides instead of rice or potatoes.
Key ingredients
Lamb chops, olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, oregano/spices.
How to make it keto
Request to omit rice, fries, or any carb-heavy sides. Ask for a simple green salad with oil & vinegar, or grilled vegetables (e.g., zucchini, eggplant) instead.
Say this to the waiter (Arabic)
رياش غنم، من فضلك بدون أرز، بطاطا مقلية أو أي إضافات غنية بالكربوهيدرات. أريد سلطة خضراء بخل وزيت، أو خضروات مشوية.
Riyash Ghanam, please no rice, fries, or carb-heavy sides. I'd like a simple green salad with oil/vinegar, or grilled vegetables.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in marinades, cross-contamination with carb-heavy items on the grill. Ensure chosen sides are low-carb.
