How to eat this

High cholesterol
  • Kottu porotta combines porotta, leftover beef or mutton and egg: ½ cup.
  • Pazham kanji is almost fat-free and easy on the stomach.
Diabetes
  • Four starches again: kanji, dosa, kottu and bread. Pick one: 1 cup kanji, 2 dosas or 2 slices of bread.
  • Add the boiled egg for protein.
High blood pressure
  • Kottu porotta carries ~1,220 mg and kanji ~530 mg. Flavour the kanji with buttermilk, shallots and chilli rather than extra salt.
Smart choices for everyone
  • There is a drive home ahead, so keep breakfast light and drink plenty of water.
  • Black coffee is the better pick today.
