What causes the difference

The portion size is the same, but the ingredients and preparation differ.

Sauce base: Tomato sauce → Coconut milkVegetables: Spinach → PotatoFats: + Cream
  • The sauce base is the whole story: tomato sauce runs ~30 kcal per 100 g while coconut milk runs ~200 — one choice flips the same chicken curry from saag territory to rendang territory.
  • Cream and ghee stirred into the higher-calorie pot are invisible in the finished bowl, yet together they add more calories than the chicken itself.
  • Spinach and peppers bulk the lower-calorie curry with water and fiber, so the same 300 g plate simply carries less energy per spoon.
