Dhokla (1 Piece) and Coffee with Milk (1 Coffee Cup (6 Fl Oz))

Choose unsweetened coffee and avoid sugar, flavored syrups, sweetened condensed milk, or biscuits alongside it.

Use a smaller amount of milk in coffee, preferably unsweetened milk or unsweetened soy milk.

Keep dhokla to a modest portion and avoid pairing it with sweet chutney; use mint-coriander chutney without added sugar instead.

Add a side of non-starchy vegetables such as cucumber, tomato, or salad before eating dhokla to slow the rise.

Prefer dhokla made primarily from besan (chickpea flour) rather than versions made with more rice or refined flour.

Take a 10–15 minute easy walk after the meal, if appropriate for your health and mobility.
