Healthy Hints

Not bad – just over 150 kcal per serving. Remember, though, that you may also be eating some chapati and maybe even some rice and dhal, so it all mounts up. Check out the pop up box for calories in the Food Facts below to see how many calories you should be taking in a day. One meal should provide a quarter to a third of your daily calories.

Cooking Guide

1. Heat oil in a small saucepan over moderate heat.
2. Add the cumin seeds, onions, garlic, ginger and sauté until golden brown.
3. Add salt, turmeric and tomatoes.
4. Simmer for 5-7 minutes to allow spices to blend into the tomatoes and from a smooth gravy texture.

7. Garnish with coriander.
