Indian recipes

Curries, dhals and the curry-house favourites: butter chicken, tikka masala, chana masala, palak paneer, jalfrezi. Lentils, chickpeas, spinach and yogurt carry a lot of these dishes, and spice gives flavour without calories.

Each recipe is scored for satiety per calorie. Lentil and chickpea dishes and yogurt-marinated chicken score high; cream, ghee and a big pile of rice pull the number down.
