How to make it keto
Explicitly request no rice, bulgur, or bread. Ask for extra grilled vegetables and a simple salad with olive oil and lemon dressing on the side.
Watch out for
Hidden sugar in some marinades (rare for authentic Adana but possible), overly sweet tomato paste in the kebab mix, sugary salad dressings (request oil/lemon on the side).
