How to make it keto
Order as a plate (tabağı) and specify no rice, no bread (pilavsız, ekmeksiz). Confirm no breadcrumbs in the kebab mixture (unlikely for authentic Adana, but always good to check).
Watch out for
Minimal sugars in red pepper paste (if any), accompanying rice or bread (must be omitted), potential sugary salad dressings.
