Chai (1 Teacup (6 Fl Oz)) and Kachori (1 Piece)

Have unsweetened chai or sweeten it with a non-sugar sweetener; avoid sugar, jaggery, honey, and sweet biscuits alongside it.

Limit kachori to a small portion and avoid having it on an empty stomach.

Pair the meal with protein and fiber, such as plain Greek yogurt, boiled eggs, paneer, or a small handful of almonds or walnuts.

Replace fried kachori more often with moong-dal chilla, besan chilla, or a vegetable-and-paneer omelet.

Add a side of non-starchy vegetables such as cucumber, tomato, leafy salad, or sautéed spinach before eating the kachori.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after the meal and avoid sitting still immediately afterward.
