From an express.co.uk link about healthy takeaways:
CHINESE
Worst choice: Battered sweet and sour pork with special fried rice
1,100 calories, 37g fat
Battered, deep-fried pork balls with sugary sweet and sour sauce adds up to well over half your daily calorie intake and can have up to 19 teaspoons of sugar if you eat all the sauce, a Which? survey revealed.
It’s best to avoid battered options completely as this is where the calories really lie. Fried rice has 50 per cent more calories than plain.
Better choice: Chicken chow mein
860 calories, 30g fat
Still not a top choice if you’re trying to lose weight but chow mein is one of the more nutritionally balanced Chinese takeaways, especially if you ask for extra vegetables (or swap the chicken version for a mushroom one). It has less saturated fat than battered dishes and only moderate salt levels.
With noodles already incorporated in the dish you won’t need side orders. Other reasonable choices include beef in black bean sauce and chicken with cashew nuts.
Best choice: Szechuan prawns and vegetables with half a portion of steamed rice
589 calories, 14g fat
Look for steamed or wok-fried dishes, preferably those with seafood and/or vegetables to ensure the lowest-fat choice. Szechuan prawns or prawns with ginger and spring onions fit the bill perfectly but eat with only half a portion of boiled rice.
Top tips
Avoid fattening side orders such as spring rolls, crispy seaweed and prawn crackers.
Try a portion of stir-fried vegetables as a lighter alternative to rice.
