Pastry filled with Potatoes and Peas (Fried) (1 Miniature Samosa) and Tea (Tea India) (1 Serving)

Have a smaller portion of the fried pastry and avoid having it on an empty stomach.

Pair it with protein and fiber, such as plain unsweetened yogurt, a boiled egg, or a small handful of almonds.

Choose unsweetened tea; skip sugar, honey, sweetened milk, and sweet snacks alongside it.

Add a side of non-starchy vegetables or a chickpea salad with lemon and herbs to slow absorption.

If possible, choose a baked version with a thinner crust and a filling that uses more peas, lentils, and vegetables than potatoes.

Take an easy 10–20 minute walk after eating rather than sitting immediately.
