English Indian Shahi Paneer (100 G), Dal Yellow (Hommade) (1 Serving) and Roti (1 Medium (7 Inches))

Reduce the roti portion (for example, have one smaller roti) and increase the dal and paneer portions instead.

Choose a whole-grain, high-fibre roti made with barley flour or chickpea flour rather than refined flour; keep it thin and modest in size.

Add a large side of non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, cauliflower, okra, cabbage, cucumber, or salad before or alongside the meal.

Ask for shahi paneer with no added sugar or sweetened cashew paste, and keep the gravy portion moderate because restaurant sauces can be rich.

Eat the dal, paneer, and vegetables first, then the roti last; eat slowly and avoid seconds of roti or gravy.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after the meal, if appropriate for you.
