Questions

How many calories are in 2 katori?

About 489 kcal, taking one katori as 150 g (white chickpeas in onion-tomato gravy, home style). That is 18.3 g protein, 60.0 g carbohydrate and 20.4 g fat across 300 g of food.

Is 2 katori too much?

It depends entirely on the rest of the day. 489 kcal is roughly 24% of a 2,000 kcal day and 31% of a 1,600 kcal day. The honest answer is that 2 katori rarely makes a meal on its own — what goes with it usually decides the total.

How long does it take to burn off 2 katori?

Roughly 114 minutes of easy walking, 93 minutes of brisk walking or 41 minutes of running for a 70 kg adult. Useful for scale — not a licence, since appetite rises with activity.
