Pair with Protein
Add a source of protein such as a small serving of yogurt or a boiled egg to your meal to help slow down carbohydrate absorption.

Incorporate some healthy fats, like a few nuts or a spoon of coconut chutney, to help moderate blood sugar levels.
Add Fiber
Include a side of vegetables like a salad or a serving of steamed greens to increase the fiber content of your meal.
Choose Whole Grains
If possible, opt for idlis made from whole grains or millet rather than refined rice to improve the nutritional profile.
