Help - I need Low Carb Indian Recipes - prob. with this site

[a bocho]

I am Indian & love Indian food. There are a few recipes on this site for low carb Indian food, such as curries. Most Indian food is eaten with either rice or some type of flat bread, so the major problem is what do you eat them with ??? Therefore the recipes on this site don't make sense !!!

I'd apprecite it if someone could please help me & other Indian food lovers.

i've in the past used bake mixes to try to make roti. it's not as delicious as the real thing. since gram flour is made from chickpeas it's also lower carb than white flour.

personally when i make bindi masala, etc we eat it with low carb tortillas.

instead of eating rice with your curries, try boiling a cauliflower until soft and mashing it up, fairly mild taste and it helps soak up all that lovely sauce.

It is unfortunate that we can't buy much low carb substitute for Indian snacks/foods. However, I have found that you can use Low Carb Tortilla in the place of roti. You can get those at most grocery stores. I know it is not the same as having rice, and real roti, but this is pretty darn close.

Hope this helps.
