[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've had both Indian home cooked and restaurant food (in India, the US, the UK and elsewhere). A lot of oil/ghee is involved, too much for my preference. Not a fan of all the spice pods left in the dishes and you're expected to sift around it. Obesity and diabetes are a growing problem among middle class Indians so it's not exactly the healthiest cuisine if you don't watch it, but that's probably true for most cuisines. Did enjoy some dishes. Others less so. Dosis are nice as are appams from South India. [/quote] Most home cooks use very little oil. For 3 lbs of fresh veggies I'd use a tablespoon or two of oil, which hardly seems excessive. Perhaps they are making food that they think a non-Indian would like? [/quote]
