Dosa (1 Piece) and English Indian Black Chickpeas Curry (1 Cup)

Reduce the dosa portion (for example, have one smaller dosa) and avoid adding extra potato filling or sweet chutneys.

Keep the black chickpeas curry, but make it thicker with more chickpeas and non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, okra, cabbage, cauliflower, or beans.

Add a protein side such as eggs, paneer, tofu, plain Greek yogurt, or unsweetened curd to slow digestion.

Choose sambar with plenty of vegetables and lentils instead of large amounts of coconut chutney or sweetened chutneys.

Eat the chickpeas curry, vegetables, and protein first; have the dosa last and eat it slowly.

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