Chicken tikka (plain)? Just planning ahead for Thursday night girlie night in - we're also having wine so I'll need to save all my syns for that night methinks!

So red day - chicken tikka, salad and small portion of rice?

i'd go green and fill up on rice and salad, then pick veg side dishes like bombay potatoes, chickpea/lentil dahl, etc.

...and try and eat free foods all day, so you're healthy extras and sins are free'd up for your indian.

Like Karen I go green and stick to boiled rice and veggie side dishes. If you want bread - chapatti is wholemeal and not to syn heavy. I love dahl and always ask for them not to add any extra oil or ghee (they often add that at the end of the cooking). Saag (spinach dishes) are lovely but obviously paneer cheese needs a hex a.
Yummy - making me dream of Indian takeaway now.

ooh i'm intrigued by this, i really thought plain chicken tikka would have been the best bet (as a red day), so do you think lentil dahl with plain boiled rice then would be a better choice?

interested to know for future reference too as i had always thought plain tikka would be a better choice than something like lentil dahl?
