English Tandoori Roti (1 Piece) and Lamb or Mutton with Gravy (Mixture) (1 Cup)

Reduce the roti portion (for example, have half rather than a full roti) and avoid a second serving of starchy sides at the same meal.

Prioritize the lamb or mutton pieces and choose a gravy made without added sugar or starch thickeners; request extra meat and less gravy if dining out.

Start the meal with a large portion of non-starchy vegetables such as spinach, okra, cauliflower, cabbage, cucumber, or salad.

Add a small serving of plain unsweetened yogurt or raita with cucumber and herbs to slow the meal’s glucose rise.

Eat slowly and take a 10–20 minute easy walk after the meal, if safe for you.

Check your response by keeping the meal ingredients and portion sizes consistent; if spikes persist, discuss individualized targets and medication timing with your clinician.
