I appreciate that there will be no exact figure as portion sizes will vary. Typically how many grams of carb would there be in a beef curry with fried rice as a takeaway meal, about 100??
 
Egg fried rice is 57 carbs for 170g weight in itself hicken curry is only approx 5 g. Try the carbs and cals books or app. It might help.
 
Thanks for the quick reply. I would have thought the curry sauce would have had more carbs
 
The Chinese curry is low according to one of the books I have. Fried rice is a no no.

Just a matter of interest, can one eat a curry dish on its own? I always have it with plain rice or any kind of roti.
 
I actually quite enjoy with chips but they would be just as many carbs as rice I would imagine
 
Last time out on chinese I bought just a pork curry, and made some coli rice at home. Still spiked - 9.7 after 2 hours :(
