How to make it keto
Order 'tabakta döner' (döner on a plate) and explicitly state 'ekmeksiz' (without bread) and 'pilavsız' (without rice). You can often request a side of plain yogurt or a simple green salad.
Watch out for
The most significant risk is the bread (pita or lavash) or rice that accompanies a standard Döner. Some Döner marinades or accompanying tomato sauces (e.g., for İskender Döner) may contain sugar.
