However, this recipe stands out because it uses Diabexy Atta, a special flour made from nuts and seeds that has a low glycemic load.

Using NutroActive Mineral salt instead of regular salt adds a bit of extra nutrition.

The result is a crispy, golden-brown snack that’s not only delicious but also better for your health. Plus, with a glycemic load of just 6, you can enjoy these pakoras as part of a balanced diet without worrying about blood sugar spikes.
