The spicier it is, the worse it gets too. Stir-fried mala with less spice contained 380mg of sodium and 3.4g of saturated fats per 100g, while the one with extra spice had 519mg of sodium and 6.3g of saturated fats.

If you want (it) extra spicy, theyll add more oil, said Wong. More oil means more fats.

According to dietitian Jacqueline Loh from Mount Alvernia Hospital, there are healthier ways to eat mala. She, for one, usually sees to it that the oil at the top of the broth is removed after her ingredients are cooked.

Sometimes the oil can fill three to four rice bowls, said Loh.

In terms of choosing ingredients, she said those that have been deep-fried beforehand, such as fried tofu skin and fried yam, would absorb double the amount of oil.

She also suggested blanching leafy vegetables like lettuce or spinach, instead of leaving them in the hotpot to cook fully and absorb the oil.

The same principles apply to stir-fried mala. And one way of reducing the sodium level is to ask for less paste and less oil to be used.
