I had curry each day on my 2 week holiday in Sri Lanka a few years ago, which is probably deserving of some sort of medal - for my family who suffered the collateral damage.
Just the one. All the carbs and extras soon fill me up.
Then I don’t fancy a curry for ages.

I've just made one, to be eaten later. I went off it for years but then I started googling and removed all the oil.
This is frankly immense: https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/tom-kerridges-madras-curry-paste
I could never get that British/Indian Madras taste, but Tom nails it with the addition of vinegar and tamarind.
I do the whole thing in a pressure cooker ( a light recipe I made up with paste and lamb), but you could do it in the oven. Always with flatbread not rice and I realised why curry killed me for years.

I tend to have half of a meat and another half of a veggie curry but now don't like getting too bagged up with too much food.
There's a London curry chain called Dishoom, with a fab restaurant in Edinburgh, whose food and cookbook is quite splendid. This Friday me and two pals are catering for 80 at a friend's party. I am doing the Chicken Ruby from the Dishoom Cookbook, absolute stonker and well worth the effort! My favourite curry though is their Dahl. Smooth and so so luscious!

Back to the thread, surely it depends on how many people are dining with you?
Mrs Jakarta and I had another couple over for a Ruby and we all had different mains plus some sides - being a greedy bugger I tried them all!

You have to visit the tandoori section for this, it feels a lot cleaner and comes with salad. I used to do it if I was dieting, Tandoori king prawns was a favourite + 2 or 3 vegetable sides. Any shashlik is very nice as well.

Being used to British curries when I got here I thought it was a bit meh at first but it's really grown on me, it's quite a comfort food. Curry udon is the ****in nuts though, proper hangover cure.
