    Here is a South Indian fiber and protein rich breakfast called pesarattu - https://www.google.com/amp/indianhealthyrecipes.com/andhra-pesarattu-whole-moong-dosa/amp/
    This is a savory Indian crepe made with green gram. As for the calories.. you can weigh the batter u use for making one crepe according to your required calorie in take. Since it's fiber rich it's more filling and delicious.you can find green gram in sprouts farmers market in bulk food section.

    Not Indian here; Canadian. We do have an extensive selection of East Indian foods and stores here.

    A quick fix is to reduce the fat. Try using a low fat yogurt instead of full cream in your Butter Chicken for instance.

    If you live near trader joes, I buy there curry sauce that's already jarred. It's delicious and really low calorie.
