Those of you who enjoy eating Indian or better yet, cook Indian food, would any of you care to hazard a guess as to the calorie content of my favourite dishes please? (As I am not cooking it, I can't say for certain what is in it, just a loooooot of oil and good flavours).

Top pick dishes include

Palak paneer
Eggplant curry
vegetable curry
Dalh
Butter chicken

The place I get my takeaway from doesn't use much cream (butter chicken excepted), just lots of oil and spice.

    according to Calorie Count website Palak Paneer aprox 270 cals per 280g serving containing aprox 9.1grams of fat 2.5 sat fat
    Vegetable Curry 200g serving 190 cals 8 grams of fat.
    We have a local store that does Sweet Potato and Red Pepper Dhansk yum I think I could live on it it's around 216 cals with 8 grams of fat

    You should find them in the database, or if you are short of time search for "Indian buffet" you should find a rough count you can put in.
    If course it will be a very wild guess but it gets something in there!
