Low-Carb Besan Cheela is a nutritious and satisfying Indian pancake made with gram flour (besan) and spices. Unlike traditional carb-heavy breakfasts, this version keeps the carb count low while delivering a punch of flavor and plant-based protein. It’s quick to prepare, supports blood sugar balance, and keeps you full for hours — making it ideal for weight loss, diabetic diets, PCOS, or anyone following a low-carb lifestyle. Pair it with a light chutney or yogurt, and you’ve got a balanced, gut-friendly Indian meal in under 15 minutes.
