Takeaway prawn curry is a cooked dish of prawns in a spiced sauce. The figures shown are averages for sampled Bhuna and Madras curries, rather than a single recipe. It provides protein and fat, with smaller amounts of carbohydrate and fibre. Per 100g, it contains 8.2g of protein, 8.5g of fat, 1.4g of saturated fat and 0.78g of salt.
Protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. The salt and saturated fat content are relevant for people monitoring these in their diet. Recipes and serving sizes vary between takeaways, so the amount consumed will depend on the dish and quantity eaten. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.
