English Indian Bhelpuri (1 Serving (120g)) and Tea with Milk and Sugar (1 Teacup (6 Fl Oz))

Make bhelpuri with a smaller portion of puffed rice and add more cucumber, tomato, onion, coriander, sprouts, roasted chana, and peanuts for more fibre and protein.

Skip potato, sev, sweet chutney, and sugary sauces; use lemon, mint-coriander chutney without added sugar, chilli, and spices for flavour.

Have the bhelpuri after, or alongside, a protein-rich snack such as plain curd, roasted chana, or peanuts rather than eating it alone.

Take tea with milk but without sugar; use cinnamon, cardamom, or a non-caloric sweetener such as stevia if sweetness is needed.

Keep the serving modest and eat slowly, avoiding a second helping of bhelpuri or additional sweet snacks with the tea.

Walk at an easy-to-brisk pace for 10–20 minutes after eating to help reduce the rise in glucose.
