How to order smarter from any menu

You don’t need a special restaurant. Most menus already have a lighter version of what you want.

  • Butter chicken, korma, butter naanTikka or tandoori, dal, tandoori roti

    Grilled and tomato-based dishes carry less saturated fat than cream gravies.6

  • Medu vada, ghee roast dosaIdli, plain dosa, sambar, curd rice

    Steamed beats deep-fried, and sambar adds dal and vegetables.5

  • Fried momos, Manchurian, fried riceSteamed momos, clear soup, a stir-fry with steamed rice

    Steaming and stir-frying use far less fat. Ask for the sauce on the side; it’s salty.5,6

  • Cheese burst, pepperoni, Alfredo pastaThin crust with vegetables, tomato-based pasta

    Extra cheese and cured meats are big sources of saturated fat.6

  • A full plate of biryani with fried startersA half portion with raita and salad

    Biryani is rice cooked in fat; curd and vegetables balance the meal.5

  • Crispy patty, double cheese, friesGrilled chicken, paneer or bean patty, salad on the side

    Grilling skips the frying fat.6

  • Gulab jamun, thick shakes, sugary cold coffeeFruit, plain or Greek yogurt, one small dessert shared

    Fruit and plain yogurt are the lower-sugar desserts.5,7

Two habits for every order: add a vegetable side, and ask for less oil or butter in the cooking notes. Gravies, pickles and papad add a lot of salt.5

Questions

Questions people ask

What is the healthiest thing to order on Swiggy or Zomato?

Grilled or tandoori protein with dal and roti, a salad bowl with a protein, or an idli-sambar meal. Swiggy’s EatRight filters and Zomato’s Healthy Mode narrow the menu for you.

Is a salad bowl always the healthy choice?

Not always. Creamy dressings, fried toppings and big portions add up. Ask for the dressing on the side and pick a bowl with protein: paneer, tofu, chickpeas, eggs or chicken.

How do I eat healthy from a North Indian restaurant?

Order tandoori or tikka, dal, tandoori roti and kachumber. Skip makhani and korma gravies, butter naan and dal makhani, and ask for less butter.

Is biryani okay on a diet?

As an occasional meal, yes: a half portion with raita and a salad. Skip the fried starters alongside it.

How accurate are the healthy labels on food apps?

They’re a useful guide. Swiggy’s High Protein label follows set rules, while Zomato’s Healthy Score is estimated with AI from restaurant data, so treat it as an estimate.
