Make it a balanced meal营养搭配建议
Balance it: add basmati rice for carbs and cooling raita for protein + calcium; a simple cucumber-tomato salad adds fiber.均衡搭配：配印度香米补碳水，酸奶黄瓜酱补蛋白和钙，再来点黄瓜番茄沙拉补纤维。
Why it works: aim for half the plate vegetables, a quarter protein, a quarter whole grains or starch — then let one rich dish be the star.搭配思路：半盘蔬菜、四分之一蛋白、四分之一主食；一桌里只让一道浓郁的菜当主角。
