How to read this
Per-100 g comparisons flatter whatever is eaten in small portions. Paneer Paratha is denser per gram, but people do not eat by the gram — aloo paratha arrives as 1 medium aloo paratha and paneer paratha as 1 paneer paratha, and that is where the real difference shows up.
Paneer Paratha carries more protein, which matters more than the calorie gap if you are trying to stay full. Fibre also favours aloo paratha here. Both figures assume home cooking with a measured amount of oil; a restaurant plate of either can run 30 to 60% higher.
