How to eat this

High cholesterol
  • Porotta is layered with fat. Three pieces carry about 18 g of saturated fat (~90% of a day's limit). Have one.
  • Beef fry and mutton curry together add about 35 g of saturated fat. Choose one meat, not both, and lift the meat out of the curry rather than ladling the oil.
Diabetes
  • Porotta is refined flour (maida) and raises blood sugar fast. One porotta is about 32 g of carbohydrate.
  • Fill up from the salad table. This menu has no vegetables of its own.
High blood pressure
  • About 3,100 mg at the full share. The three porottas alone carry about 1,050 mg.
  • Choosing one curry instead of both saves roughly 900–1,200 mg.
Smart choices for everyone
  • Good plate: 1 porotta, ¾ cup mutton curry (meat and potato), and a heap of onion–tomato salad.
  • It is the last night at the bar, so eat a proper dinner before drinking rather than skipping it.
