English Besan Chilla (1 Piece) and Curd (Mother Dairy) (1 Serving)

Keep the chilla portion smaller and avoid adding rice flour, refined flour, potatoes, or sweet chutneys to the batter or meal.

Use unsweetened plain curd and avoid flavored, sweetened, or fruit-added curd; keep the serving moderate.

Increase non-starchy vegetables in the chilla, such as spinach, capsicum, onion, tomato, mushrooms, or grated zucchini, to slow absorption.

Add a protein-rich side such as paneer, tofu, eggs, or a small handful of nuts/seeds, and cook with minimal oil.

Eat the meal after a short walk or take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating, rather than remaining seated.

Check your glucose response with the same portion on another day; if spikes remain large or you use diabetes medicines, discuss the meal and medication timing with your clinician.
