Chinese food sure is tasty, but if you're on a diet, you might be thinking it's not the best choice for your caloric intake. E Hur Wei is here to guide you with some dining options that ARE healthy! Who said dieting had to be bland?
Anything steamed is obviously good, as is Jum (poached), Chu (broiled), Kow (roasted), Shu (barbecued), lightly stir-fried, dry stir-fried, or braised. If you're dieting, stay away from anything breaded, fried, or coated in flour. The best stuff is never good for you!
While dieting or watching your calories, avoid thick gravy or sauces made from sugar, flour, or cornstarch (such as those found on General Tso's or Sweet and Sour Pork). They're loaded with corn syrup. Instead, try a dish made with hot mustard sauce, hoisin sauce, or oyster sauce. Another tip with your sauces - always ask for "half sauce." That way, you get half the sauce—and half the calories—of what is normally used in the dish.
Try ordering your meal from E Hur Wei cooked in vegetable stock (a traditional Chinese style of cooking called "stock velveted") to reduce the calories in your dish by 150-300 and the fat by 15-30 grams.
