Fish & Chips

Best dish: Large haddock, with half the batter removed, and a shared portion of chips. 660 calories, 33g fat.
It can be fattening, but the average portion of chip shop fish and chips will have more fibre and less saturated fat than two slices of wholemeal toast with butter. And if you go for a bigger portion of fish and a smaller serving of chips, throwing away the soggier half of the batter, you'll save calories whilst getting more hunger-curbing protein. Haddock is very rich in iodine, which helps produce the thyroid hormones that control metabolic rate. Serve with frozen peas.

Chinese

Best dish: Prawns with ginger and spring onions, plus boiled rice. 498 calories, 12g fat.
Ditch your usual battered sweet and sour pork with egg fried rice, it has 1100 calories, 60g of fat and 9 teaspoons of sugar, and opt for king prawns, ginger and spring onions instead. With boiled rice this stir-fried dish is less than 500 calories and a good source of protein. The spring onions provide folate, which is an important pregnancy vitamin, and are needed for healthy red blood cells.

Indian

Best dish: Vegetable biryani with a drizzle of sauce that usually comes in a separate pot. 650 calories, 23g fat.
This doesn't sound very slimline, but the rice is included as part of the dish and it's incredibly filling. Pilau rice as an extra side dish is 450 calories on top of your main course. You'll also get two vegetable servings, plus at least a third of your daily fibre. But how good it is depends on how much of the sauce you add.
