Reduce the portion size of idli and ghee to manage the glucose spike better.

Pair idli with a side of vegetables like spinach or broccoli to increase fiber intake, which can help slow down glucose absorption.

Add a source of protein such as boiled eggs, tofu, or a small serving of lentils alongside your meal to help stabilize blood sugar levels.

Replace some of the ghee with a smaller amount of healthier fats like avocado or a few nuts like almonds or walnuts.

Incorporate a salad with a vinegar-based dressing before your meal to help moderate the glucose response.

Drink a glass of water before your meal to help manage hunger and prevent overeating, which can lead to spikes.

Consider eating smaller meals more frequently throughout the day rather than having larger meals, which can help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Engage in light exercise, such as a short walk, after meals to help lower blood sugar levels.

Eat slowly and mindfully, paying attention to hunger cues, which can help prevent overeating and manage glucose levels.

Occasionally replace idli with a grain like quinoa or barley, which can be cooked into a similar dish and may result in a steadier glucose response.
