What to eat tonight? - Indian Meal Suggestions pls

[Muso Mama]

I had the vegetable rogan and it was absolutely gorgeous, with plain boiled rice, I did think the sauce looked a little oily so I picked out the vegetables and it was just the right amount of spice, tasty without blowing your head off. I also had a little chicken tikka with salad as a starter and quarter of a poppadom - I dont think I've had more than about 7 syns on the food side so have made up to 15 with the ole red wine MMMmmmm!!! lol

Daisy,

that's brilliant - I love it !!

Dansak is good for syns but one restaurant I went to, the Dansak looked really creamy and very like a Korma (and v delicious !) so to be on the safe side I left most of the sauce. However, mostly a Dansak should be fine.

Hi I am a newbie and have been looking at this site the last few weeks as I find a lot more answers on here than the actual SW website

I was wondering if anyone could tell me roughly how many syns would be in a dry chicken Tikka at an Indian, as I had this last week with boiled rice in the hope that it was quite low in syns but want to double check before I order it again?

Any help would be much appreciated!

I was looking for the same - I go for chicken tikka as I assumed it was less because it didn't have a sauce - any one know how many syns it is?

I thought I might have chicken shashlick with bombay potatoes? Does that sound low syn?? I adore spinach bhaji (the side dish - its nothing like an onion bhaji) does anyone know how many syns that would have?

I love Rogan Josh for 6.5 syns or a Vindaloo for 11 syns

I'm going for a curry tonight, and I don;t know the syn value for the curry I am planning or how many pop's I'll eat. I do know I will fore-go a starter and the Nam bread!! I don;t drink so low fat fizzy juice will be drunk. I'll be back on the plan tomorrow with avengence! Out with the girls Sat afternoon but feel that'll be a lot easier to syn-free! Had work this losing weight business!

I usually have Chicken Shaslick which is chicken peppers onions that has been marinated and cooked on a hot platters.Then you can order any sauce you want to have on the side.korma madras etc I usually have a few spoonfuls and boiled rice.Feels odd offering low syn ideas when Ive eaten like a pig lately.

How many syns is a vegetable rogan Josh? Tonight I had a takeaway veg jalfrezi but I just don't believe it was 7.5 syns, it was super oily!

 

[Surzy]

I normally have a Chicken shaslick with boiled rice and a lentil dhal on the side (just a few spoons)

Oh and 2 poppadoms - because it wouldn't be worth going otherwise!!

 

[Lilleece79]

I pigged out when I went Fri!

I had chicken tikka Koria, 1 1/2 poppadoms with all the dips! And a slither of pashwaree naan! Was SOOOOOO tasty!

First big "test" for me next Friday, I am already thinking what I am going to be eating/drinking. I am going to save some syns. Looks like a Lamb Rogan Josh (which I eat anyway) no naan, but boiled rice. Sounds ok to me

I'm going out for a curry this weekend and have been worrying about it for a while, this link has been very helpful! I might just take the day off of sw and eat a little bit of what I fancy, without going overboard, maybe!? No doubt wine will be involved too

 

[AbFab]

Me too, we're going for an Indian at the weekend and I'm very excited. Going to have either a chicken dhanzak or a chicken dopiaza with boiled rice and maybe have a little bit of chicken tikka to start. I used to LOVE naan breads so will stay away from those. I do think I'll have to have a few wines though! arty0049:
