What Indian food is low carb?
When ordering Indian food in a restaurant get grilled or tandoori meats, paneer, or curries. For the latter option, I recommend you ask if sugar or other hidden carbs are used. Avoid bread, rice, and any other type of carb.
What to serve Indian food over if it’s low carb?
Cauliflower rice is an excellent option and you can customize it with your favorite herbs and spices.
You can also opt for another low-carb veggie-based side which would work just as well.
