I always have a jalfrezi, which is chicken, tomatoes, onions and green chilies, and a few other spices. It is not oily. I also have a naan bread, and a little rice
Do indian takeaways use good oils or bad oils to cook, and is it bad for you. After all, i cook it myself at home some times, and it would be deemed as a healthy meal, as it is just the ingredients above.

Any Indian curry (meat or vegetable dish), if cooked at home in limited amount of oil/butter/ghee is healthy as it gives you a balanced amount of vitamins, carbs and proteins. Indian takeout is as healthy (or not) as a Chinese takeout or any other restaurant food.
Any kind of food cooked at home is always much healthier.

I heard Indian takaways are very fattening. Which is criminal cos they are my fave. I think its better if you cook it at home, then you know what oil you are using and there is no colouring. I have had food in a resturant before where by the sauce is unnaturally red, ie preservatives and food colouring. Try and have bolied rice if you can (healthier) I find that you appreciate the taste of the curry more as well and i always have a chapati which is thinner bread and not oily. HMMMMMMMMMMM i really fancy a curry now

It depends on the standard of the Indian takeaway you use. Just like any take away place there are good and bad. A good one would use good fresh ingredients

I prefer both fruits and fruit and vegetables better, however they look and taste. You desire a little of both.

If perhaps it's a fruit they have seeds, otherwise it's a vegetable. And vegetables are usually grown in the ground while fruits are grown in trees.

they use ghee (clarified butter) and vegetable oil.
if you are cooking it at home you can control how much oil etc is used so no prob, plus you don't get the extra food colouring! sit back and enjoy.
