Key ingredients

How to make it keto
Explicitly request as a 'plate' (tabak) but without rice, fries, or bread (pide/lavash). Ask for a plain green salad with olive oil and lemon on the side, or grilled low-carb vegetables. Confirm no sugary sauces or marinades for the meat.
Watch out for
Hidden sugar in marinades, potato starch or other fillers in some lower-quality Döner meat, high-carb side dishes (rice, fries, bread, sugary salad dressings).
