English Indian Maize Flour Flatbread (1 Piece) and English Saag (100 G)

Reduce the maize-flour flatbread portion and pair it with a larger serving of non-starchy saag cooked with minimal added fat.

Add a protein-rich side such as paneer, tofu, eggs, fish, or plain unsweetened Greek yogurt to slow carbohydrate absorption.

Include a small serving of lentils, chickpeas, or beans in place of part of the flatbread; avoid adding potatoes or sweetened sauces.

Start the meal with a salad or raw vegetables such as cucumber, tomato, leafy greens, or cabbage, dressed with lemon juice or vinegar.

Avoid eating the flatbread alone or when very hungry; eat protein and vegetables first, then the flatbread last.

Take a gentle 10–20 minute walk after eating, if medically appropriate, to help reduce the post-meal rise.
