A very commonly made statement is that Indian Food is unhealty. In our opinion, making a blanket statement like that gives Indian food a bad rap. Indian food just like any other food can be prepared in a healthy way and an unhealthy way. You can have a Subway Sandwich for about 250 calories or a couple of KFC Double Downs for over 1000 calories. Its really in how the food is prepared, what ingredients are used and what portions you consume. The primary reason this impression about Indian food exists is because many
restaurants and folks use ingredients like Clarified butter, cream and such, in
order to get the best taste. With slightly different ingredients and a small
sacrifice in taste, you can still enjoy healthy Indian food. The second reason
is that most Indian restaurants offer a buffet and people just eat more than
needed (from appetizers to desert) and then blame it on Indian food. If you chose
reasonable portions, you would be fine. Here are some tips on what you can order
at an Indian restaurant is you are watching what you eat. |
