Gobi Paratha (1 Piece) and Curd (Mother Dairy) (1 Serving)

Make the paratha smaller and use more cauliflower filling relative to the dough; avoid adding potato or refined flour.

Choose unsweetened plain curd and keep the serving moderate; do not add sugar, sweetened chutneys, or fruit preserves.

Replace some or all of the wheat flour with barley flour or chickpea flour, and add flaxseed or chia seeds to increase fibre.

Pair the meal with a protein side such as paneer, tofu, eggs, or a small bowl of lentils.

Add a large non-starchy salad or cooked vegetables before the paratha, such as cucumber, tomato, spinach, or okra.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after eating and avoid lying down immediately.
