How Many Calories is Indian Food?
Indian food calories vary a lot. For instance, a typical serving of chicken biryani has about 500-600 calories while a serving of saag paneer might have around 300-400 calories. But who's really counting when it tastes that good?

Not a simple answer! Indian food ranges from under 200 calories (for a veggie curry) to over 700 (for a creamy dish). Balance is key!
Who cares?! It's delicious! YOLO.
Depends on the dish! Butter chicken? Around 490 calories a serving. Lentil soup (dal)? Way lower, maybe 150 calories. Watch the naan and samosas, those add up quick!
Eating Indian food often? As someone who did, I noticed certain dishes like tandoori chicken are relatively light (~250 cal), but creamy curries and breads can pump up the calorie count fast. Balance your meals with veggies and lentil dishes for a healthier option.
