2.4 g per 100 g, which works out to 3.6 g in 1 katori. That is 9% of the energy in this food, and ranks 22nd of 28 in the paneer & vegetable curries group on this site.
Is aloo shimla mirch good for weight loss?
At 110 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 capsicum. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.
