Nutrition per Serving
Sugars shown are total sugars (naturally occurring + added) per serving and are approximate. For fruits and dairy this is mostly natural sugar; for sweets and many cooked dishes it reflects added sugar or jaggery.
Tips to Manage Blood Sugar
Choose a sprouts or boondi filling over potato, and skip the sweet chutney to ease the sugar spike.

Bhel Puri
भेल पूरी · భేల్ పూరి
Puffed rice tossed with chopped onion, tomato, chutneys and sev. Medium-high GI as puffed rice digests quickly despite the vegetables.
Sprout Chaat
अंकुरित चाट · మొలకల చాట్
Mixed sprouts salad with onions, tomatoes, and lemon. One of the healthiest Indian snacks — high protein, low GI.
Samosa
समोसा · సమోసా
Deep-fried pastry with spiced potato filling. High GI from refined flour outer and potato filling, plus deep frying adds calories.
