Healthy Tips

Salad dressings and mayonnaise

• Use fat-free varieties, skim or low-fat yoghurt and herbs

Sour cream

• Use reduced fat varieties

• Try skim or low-fat natural yoghurt as an alternative

Cheese

• Mature cheese (e.g. cheddar)

• For melting purposes, use a mixture of one part full-fat cheddar to four parts reduced-fat cheddar to improve consistency and flavour

• Combine cottage cheese and low-fat ricotta cheese

Milk

• Use skim milk, low or reduced fat milk

Curries

• Use low-fat coconut milk or try evaporated skim milk with a few drops of coconut essence

Gravy

• Separate meat juices from dripping to make a low fat gravy(place juices in a container in the freezer for 10+minutes and fat will rise to the top for removal) or use powdered gravy mix with water.
