→ reduce the oil
this may seem like a bit of a no brainer, but let me add to it. i don't use any cooking oil, and only use oil if it's necessary for flavor (such as chili oil). however, i only use about a teaspoon of oil when i use it.
oil is generally useless calories! most of the flavor you lose from it can be made up for by seasoning your food with non-oily condiments such as chili powder or fresh chilis, spices, etc.
when i make curries i do use full fat fresh coconut milk. however, i keep my rice away from my curry so it doesn't soak it up, and only have whatever of the coconut milk clings to my meat and vegetables.
i made this gorgeous low cal cauliflower purée i made last night that’s literally like mashed potatoes but better!! this whole bowl is like 130 calories
sorry for posting my face sm but what do you think my personal color is?? i used to think i was a winter but i look best in white and other light colors (left is cool tone makeup, right is warm tone)
→ change the protein
many malaysian and chinese recipes use proteins with a considerable amount of fat. my biggest, easiest workaround? i change the protein to one from a list of "safe" proteins that i keep on hand. it usually doesn't compromise the flavor or texture at all!
