How does Chicken curry fit a cut vs a bulk?
At 9.1g of protein per 100 kcal, Chicken curry is protein-dense relative to its calories — useful on a calorie deficit (a cut) because it helps hit a daily protein target without spending many of the day's remaining calories. It fits a calorie surplus (a bulk) just as easily; on a bulk, the calorie cost matters less, so portion size is usually driven by appetite and total daily targets rather than by protein efficiency.
How much Chicken curry should I eat?
The dataset's reference serving is 1 bowl (248 g), giving the 320 kcal and 29.3g protein above. Most people fit 1-2 servings into a single meal depending on the rest of the plate and their daily calorie target — log the actual amount eaten in IRONSLOG rather than assuming one fixed serving every time.
