Questions
How many calories are in 2 roti?
About 274 kcal, taking one roti as 48 g (one medium phulka with about half a teaspoon of ghee applied after cooking). That is 6.5 g protein, 39.4 g carbohydrate and 9.6 g fat across 96 g of food.
Is 2 roti too much?
It depends entirely on the rest of the day. 274 kcal is roughly 14% of a 2,000 kcal day and 17% of a 1,600 kcal day. The honest answer is that 2 roti rarely makes a meal on its own — what goes with it usually decides the total.
How long does it take to burn off 2 roti?
Roughly 64 minutes of easy walking, 52 minutes of brisk walking or 23 minutes of running for a 70 kg adult. Useful for scale — not a licence, since appetite rises with activity.
