English Indian Litti Bread (1 Piece)

Reduce the litti portion and avoid eating it alone; have one smaller piece rather than multiple pieces in one sitting.

Eat a protein-rich starter such as eggs, plain Greek yogurt, or paneer before the litti.

Pair litti with a generous serving of non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, okra, cauliflower, cabbage, or salad, rather than potato-based sides.

Choose a filling or accompaniment based on chickpeas, lentils, or sattu, and avoid sweet chutneys, sugary drinks, and large amounts of refined-flour sides.

Eat slowly and stop when comfortably full; spreading the meal over a longer period can reduce the size of the rise.

Take a 10–20 minute easy walk soon after eating, if this is safe and appropriate for you.
