How to make it keto
Request no lavash, pita bread, or bulgur on the side. Confirm no flour or breadcrumbs are used as a binder in the kebab mixture. Ensure accompanying salad is simple, without sugary dressings.
Watch out for
Hidden flour/breadcrumbs in the kebab mixture (uncommon for authentic versions but possible), sugary salad dressings, cross-contamination with bread if cooked on the same surface.
