[quote=Anonymous]I'm Indian-American, and my dad's a cardiologist. Growing up, my mom cooked in a small amount of oil, and she only added a very small touch of butter/ghee at the end for taste. For some foods (e.g. daal, curries), you can cook them in a slow cooker with whole spices and very little oil to still get flavor. Just like with any cuisine, there's a huge amount of variation in the amount of butter/animal fat that goes into Indian food. Overall, I think it's probably healthier than a lot of cuisines that use a lot of red meat, though not if you cook with tons of cream and butter (just like any other cuisine).[/quote]
