Want to get rid of bloated belly? If yes, cut down calories from your meals to begin with your weight-loss plan. Besides, bringing the caloric value of your dish down makes it healthier as well. Here are 7 low-calorie cooking tips that will help you reduce calories in your plate.
- Know the Right Cooking Method— Instead of deep frying your dish, you may choose cooking methods that require usage of little oil, preventing any addition of extra calories in your dish. Choose from baking, broiling, grilling, sautéing, poaching or steaming. Broiling and grilling are best cooking options to prepare fish, meat and poultry as these techniques let the fat from meat drain away while it is still cooking. Sautéing lets the dish cook in small amount of heated oil, however, ensure in advance that the oil is hot or you may end up preparing a soggy dish.
- Replace Refined Flour— One of the most important ingredients in Indian kitchens is whole wheat, which is also the best replacement for refined flour (maida). You may replace the items made of refined flour (maida) with whole wheat flour to make a dish lower in calories and higher in nutritional value.
- Choose the Healthiest Cooking Oil— Get rid of all types of vegetable oils and stack your kitchen with olive oil, the healthiest type of cooking oil. Along with being low in calories, olive oil is heart-healthy, thus wins hands down over other vegetable oils.
