What we did

With the same amount of food and energy in a serve:

  • Both meals are high in protein and fibre, but the HFG makeover is lower in both saturated fat and sodium.
  • We reduced the amount of saturated fat in the recipe by 60% by using yoghurt instead of coconut cream.
  • We also reduced the amount of peanut butter and nuts, which reduced the saturated fat while still giving a nice nutty taste. And there are still plenty of healthy fats in our version.
  • By choosing no-added-sugar-or-salt peanut butter, and reduced-salt soy sauce we halved the sodium.
