Oh, I have a hard time sticking to my 1200, too! So I am sure to do extra exercise on nights like this so I can have more flexibility...
That said, I think nan has a good bit of calories, so I'd try to avoid that. Ask if they have any selections that don't include the ghee or are light on it? Maybe a vegetable curry over basmati?
I am wishing you a wonderful time celebrating your friend's big day! Have fun!0 -
Poppadoms instead of starter - each large one is less than 50 calories - have them with yogurt or onion relish instead of sugary chutney.
For main course avoid coconut based curries - they will be using full fat coconut milk which is laden, choose a tomato based sauce with boiled rice if they do it, or go for a vegetable biryani - you can then use as much or as little of the sauce as you like.
Have a great time0 -
Good ideas! Ghee & coconut milk - YIKES!!! Thanks for the warning!!!0
