  1. I think that you will find that all the Curry's are about the same, as in Indian food the FAT / OIL content is about the same... But you could reduce this by just having plain boiled rice,, And do not have poppadoms or Nam breads...As they are full of FAT..

    Enjoy yourself...


  2. A veg balti is lower in calories, keep away from massala and korma they are made with cream, prawn toast for starters are quite low in calories too.

  3. As India is a HUGE country and many restaurants are owned by families different dishes are available at different restaurants  You are usually gonna be safe with anything cooked in the clay pot (Tandoor/Tandoori style) with a dry rub, also Vindaloo Style dishes are made (For the most part) without Ghee (butter) a lot of dishes that boast a Yogurt based sauce are prepared with the yougurt for creaminess as opposed to cream or ghee, also when selecting bread go with a meatless Naan and Avoid Poori style breads "Chats" are usually an appitizer that contain a yogurt based sauce...and if the resturant you are going to offers Kabab (not all do that style of cooking) those are usually fair game as well

  4. look at this

  5. vegetable is probably the safest.. but definetly avoid kormas... you dnt wanna know how many calories.. believe me

  6. You know whats really good at Indian restaurants in terms of calories? One of those sizzling chicken dishes. Sometimes they come in kebab form. These are probably the lightest thing because its just protein with minimal oil unlike the sauces that curries come in. Plain boiled rice is pretty good for you, though a little dull I think.

    I choose these not so much to loose weight, but because I prefer a lighter option as I sometimes find curries a little stodgy.

  7. Go for a dry tandoori dish - king prawn, chicken, whatever. Avoid kormas and other creamy sauces and anything fried like bhajis or pakoras.
