Dosa (1 Piece) and Dosa (1 Piece)

Choose a smaller, thinner dosa portion and avoid having multiple dosas in one meal.

Pair dosa with a generous serving of vegetable sambar containing non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, okra, beans, cabbage, or bottle gourd.

Add protein alongside it, such as eggs, paneer, tofu, unsweetened Greek yogurt, or a bowl of plain curd.

Use coconut chutney or peanut chutney in a modest portion instead of sweet chutneys or potato-heavy fillings.

Skip or greatly reduce potato masala; choose fillings such as paneer, tofu, mushrooms, spinach, or mixed non-starchy vegetables.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk after the meal and avoid sugary drinks, juice, or dessert with the dosa.
