Questions

How many calories are in 1 bowl?

About 156 kcal for 1 bowl, taken as 120 g (boiled sweetcorn with butter, lemon and spice). Two come to roughly 312 kcal and three to 468 kcal. Per 100 g, corn chaat carries 130 kcal.

How much protein is in corn chaat?

3.6 g per 100 g, which works out to 4.3 g in 1 bowl. That is 11% of the energy in this food, and ranks 26th of 29 in the snacks & street food group on this site.

Is corn chaat good for weight loss?

At 130 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 boiled sweetcorn with butter, lemon and spice. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

Nutrient values are averages for the stated preparation, based on the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN) and standard recipe analysis. Energy is reconciled against the macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. General information only — not medical or nutrition advice. Home-cooked Indian food varies enormously with oil, ghee and portion size; every value here is an average for a stated serving, with the assumption shown.
