Looking to lose some weight but don’t want to give up Indian food? Create your own healthy variation of classic Indian dishes by cooking at home and using low fat substitutes. Best of all, you can count your calories, carefully watch your portion intake, and watch your waistline.
South Asian cooking is so tasty, but unfortunately also oh-so fatty. Traditional Indian ghee-based recipes like deep-fried samosas or creamy curries are very high in fat and calories. However, there are ways to reduce the amount of fat while keeping the home made authentic taste. By using only natural and fresh ingredients and following simple, healthy recipes, you can even drop some pounds. So find the nearest farmers’ market and let CitySaheli show you the way to cook your own low fat and eco-friendly Indian cuisine!
