Pair the meal with a side of vegetables, such as a salad or sautéed greens, to help slow down digestion and stabilize blood sugar levels.

Incorporate a protein source, like a boiled egg or a small serving of paneer, to help balance the carbohydrates in your meal.

If possible, make idlis using whole grains like brown rice or incorporate lentils, which have a slower impact on blood glucose.

Reduce the amount of sugar in your tea or consider using a natural sweetener like stevia to lower the sugar content.

Try drinking tea without milk and sugar or choose a herbal tea option to reduce carbohydrate intake from the beverage.

Add a small amount of healthy fats, such as a teaspoon of ghee or a few nuts, to your meal to help slow carbohydrate absorption.

Eat your meal at regular intervals and avoid skipping meals to maintain more consistent blood sugar levels.

Drink plenty of water before and after meals to aid digestion and help manage blood sugar levels.
