English Indian Baati Bread (1 Piece)

Reduce the portion of baati bread and avoid having seconds; eat it slowly rather than on an empty stomach.

Pair the bread with a substantial serving of non-starchy vegetables, such as spinach, cauliflower, okra, cabbage, or salad.

Add protein and fat alongside it, such as eggs, paneer, plain unsweetened yogurt, fish, chicken, or tofu; avoid sweetened yogurt or sugary sauces.

Choose lentils, chickpeas, kidney beans, or black beans as the main accompaniment instead of potato-based curries or sweet chutneys.

Skip sugar-sweetened drinks, juice, desserts, and sweet chai with the meal; choose water, unsweetened tea, or plain sparkling water instead.

Take a brisk 10–20 minute walk soon after eating, if safe for you, and check your glucose response to identify a tolerable bread portion.
