If you believed Indian curries were high in calories, this menu will transform your idea.

Britain has its first "curry slimming group" after a female who shed 19 kilogram on the diet planned to launch an exclusive centre.

Suki Burai, a sales professional, has come up with a menu of healthy Indian guidelines for her members.

The chilli-hot meals comprise tandoori fish curry, chapattis and delicious lentil dishes.

Burai estimates that the meals have the tang for success.

The 41-year-old said, "I spent years on failed diets, but I started making my own recipes with different ingredients."

"I could enjoy curries on a regular basis and still lose weight. The recipes are quick and easy to make which suits a lot of women who work full-time," she added. (With Inputs from Agencies)
