Being from an Indian family, we makes lots of Indian curries and stuff. It's a bit difficult to calculate servings.
I don't know of a site that will do that. I bought a big plastic bowl with cup measurement lines on it. When I cook a big dish like that, right before we eat, I pour the whole thing in the big plastic bowl to get an idea of how many cups are in the dish. If I get ten cups out of the meal, I'll enter it as 10 servings on fitday and get 1/10 of the calories. Then I put the food in the serving dish or back in the pot and everyone helps themself. So I can dish out a cup at a time and know exactly how many calories I'm consuming and everyone else just takes what they want. I'll divide out the leftovers into 1 cup servings and put them into plastic containers to take to work.
If you ever find a site that does that, please let us know. It would be wonderful!
