Consume smaller portions of basmati rice. Consider using a food scale to accurately measure your servings.

Add lean proteins such as grilled chicken, tofu, or fish to your meal. Proteins can help slow the absorption of carbohydrates.

Integrate healthy fats like avocado, nuts, or seeds into your meal to create a more balanced blood sugar response.

Pair the rice with non-starchy vegetables such as broccoli, spinach, or bell peppers. The fiber in these vegetables can help moderate glucose levels.

When possible, substitute part of the basmati rice with whole grains like quinoa or barley to increase dietary fiber and reduce the glycemic impact.

Mix in lentils, chickpeas, or black beans with the rice. These are high in fiber and protein and can help balance the meal.

Adding a splash of vinegar or lemon juice can help lower the overall blood sugar response of the meal.

Cook the rice in advance and allow it to cool before consuming. This process increases resistant starch, which can improve blood sugar control.

Ensure you are well-hydrated and consider a light walk after meals to help with glucose metabolism.

Eat slowly and savor your meal. This can help prevent overconsumption and allows your body time to regulate blood sugar effectively.
