Cooked Green String Beans (1 Cup, Ns As To From Fresh, Frozen, Or Canned) and Roti (1 Medium (7 Inches))

Reduce the roti portion, such as having one smaller roti instead of multiple rotis, while keeping the string beans portion generous.

Choose a roti made with higher-fibre flour such as barley flour, chickpea flour, or a blend with psyllium husk, rather than finely milled wheat flour.

Add a protein-rich side to the meal, such as paneer, tofu, eggs, plain Greek yogurt, or unsweetened curd.

Include healthy fats in moderation, for example cooking the beans with a small amount of olive oil or serving the meal with avocado or a few nuts.

Add a low-starch salad before the meal, such as cucumber, tomato, leafy greens, cabbage, or radish with lemon dressing.

Avoid sweet drinks, juice, dessert, and large portions of rice alongside the beans and roti; drink water or unsweetened tea instead.
