What it takes to burn off 1 katori of aloo gobi
Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 158 kcal, using MET values from the 2024 Adult Compendium of Physical Activities. This is a scale check, not a licence — appetite rises with activity and the two do not cancel neatly.
Calculated as MET × 3.5 × 70 kg ÷ 200 kcal per minute. Full working on the method page, and the whole activity dataset at BurnLab.

Questions
How many calories are in 1 katori?
About 158 kcal for 1 katori, taken as 150 g (dry sabzi with about 1 teaspoon of oil per serving). Two come to roughly 315 kcal and three to 473 kcal. Per 100 g, aloo gobi carries 105 kcal.
How much protein is in aloo gobi?
2.6 g per 100 g, which works out to 3.9 g in 1 katori. That is 10% of the energy in this food, and ranks 19th of 28 in the paneer & vegetable curries group on this site.
Is aloo gobi good for weight loss?
At 105 kcal per 100 g it is on the lighter side, so portion size is forgiving. Protein is low, so eat it alongside a protein source rather than on its own. No single food makes or breaks a diet; the total for the day does.
Why does this differ from other calorie sites?
Two reasons. First, most sites publish a per-100 g figure from a US database and leave you to guess what a roti or a katori weighs; this page states the serving weight up front. Second, home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil and ghee — the figures here assume dry sabzi with about 1 teaspoon of oil per serving. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.
