Question: How healthy is Indian food?
Answer:

Again this depends on what and how you cook. A dazzling array of fresh fruit and vegetables, fresh meat, fish and spices, each with its own medicinal properties, makes up Indian food!

You can limit how much oil you cook with or eliminate it altogether; team rich dishes with low fat ones and pan roasted flatbread; or try the vast range of steamed dishes.
