Questions

How many calories are in 3 katori?

About 617 kcal, taking one katori as 150 g (restaurant murgh makhani with butter, cream and tomato). That is 49.1 g protein, 16.7 g carbohydrate and 39.2 g fat across 450 g of food.

Is 3 katori too much?

It depends entirely on the rest of the day. 617 kcal is roughly 31% of a 2,000 kcal day and 39% of a 1,600 kcal day. The honest answer is that 3 katori rarely makes a meal on its own — what goes with it usually decides the total.

Roughly 144 minutes of easy walking, 117 minutes of brisk walking or 51 minutes of running for a 70 kg adult. Useful for scale — not a licence, since appetite rises with activity.
