How to consume english bread pakora without glucose spikes

Opt for Whole Grain Bread

Choose whole grain or multigrain bread instead of white bread for the pakora to improve fiber content and slow down digestion.

Incorporate Vegetables

Add vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, or grated carrots into the batter to increase fiber and nutrient content.

Use Chickpea Flour

Replace some or all of the regular flour with chickpea flour (besan) to reduce the impact on blood sugar levels.

Add Protein

Include a source of protein like paneer or tofu in the pakora batter to help stabilize your blood sugar.

Pair with a Salad

Serve the bread pakora with a side of salad made from leafy greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, and a light vinaigrette dressing.

Healthy Cooking Methods

Bake or air fry the pakoras instead of deep frying to reduce the fat content and make them easier to digest.

Smaller Portions

Eat smaller portions of bread pakoras to manage the overall intake of carbohydrates and calories.

Balanced Meal

Combine the bread pakora with other low-carb dishes like a bowl of lentil soup or a side of steamed vegetables.

Include Healthy Fats

Add a small amount of healthy fats like avocado slices or nuts in your meal to help slow down the absorption of carbohydrates.

Stay Hydrated

Drink plenty of water throughout the meal to help digestion and manage blood sugar levels more effectively.

Eat Slowly

Take your time to eat and chew thoroughly, which can help with digestion and better blood sugar management.

Monitor Timing

Try to eat bread pakoras during a time of day when your body is more insulin sensitive, like earlier in the day or after a light physical activity.
