  Just eat the dishes without rice or noodles. Watch out for starchy gravies!

  You gotta assess by item
  
  The meaty products like ngor hiong are protein
  tau kwa / tau pok are bean products and contain more carbs
  
  Strictly, the diet recommends limited portions of vegetables because they contain carbs, but common sense dictates that greens are required to stay healthy
