Oak Vegetable Chilla

Oats are an excellent grain for diabetics because they are rich in soluble fibre, which helps slow down glucose absorption and keeps blood sugar levels stable. When combined with vegetables and gram flour (besan), they make a wholesome and delicious chilla that can be enjoyed as a quick meal.

This dish is low in oil, gluten-free, and full of fibre from oats, carrots, capsicum, and onions. The protein from gram flour and oats adds satiety, reducing the chances of overeating. The spices keep it flavourful without the need for excess salt or oil.

Perfect for breakfast, snacks, or even a light dinner, this oats chilla is a versatile recipe that can be paired with mint chutney or curd for a balanced diabetic-friendly meal.
