English Moong Dal Chilla (1 Piece) and Coffee with Milk and Sugar (1 Coffee Cup (6 Fl Oz))

Replace sugar in coffee with stevia or monk-fruit sweetener, and use unsweetened milk.

Have the coffee after or alongside the moong dal chilla rather than on an empty stomach.

Add protein and fiber to the chilla, such as paneer, tofu, spinach, grated zucchini, or bell peppers.

Keep the chilla portion moderate and avoid pairing it with high-sugar chutneys or sauces; choose mint-coriander chutney instead.

Include a small side salad of cucumber, tomato, and leafy greens before or with the meal.

Take a 10–15 minute easy walk after eating to help blunt the rise in glucose.
