İskender-Style Kebap (Ekmeksiz)
İskender-Style Döner Meat with Yogurt and Sauce (No Bread)
Yes, with a tweak: absolutely no bread (pita or lavash) should be served underneath or on the side. About 15g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Turkish food, so watch the portion.
What it is
Thinly sliced, savory döner meat (typically lamb or beef) served with a rich tomato sauce, topped with a dollop of plain yogurt and generous melted butter. The traditional pita bread underneath is omitted for a keto adaptation.
Key ingredients
Döner meat (lamb/beef), tomato sauce (tomatoes, butter, spices), plain yogurt, melted butter.
