Goan Fish Curry calories
per katori, not per 100 g

The short answer

One katori, weighed

188kcal 1 katori — taken as 150 g — has about 188 calories, with 18.8 g protein, 7.5 g carbohydrate and 9.0 g fat. Two come to 375 kcal, three to 563 kcal.

Per 100 g, goan fish curry carries 125 kcal and 12.5 g protein.

Drawn to scale — the shaded area of each is proportional to its weight. 1 katori weighs 150 g: 1.5× the beaker. Publish 125 kcal and you have answered a question nobody asked at a table; publish 188 kcal and you have answered the one that was.

From a table row to one katori

  1. Read the per-100 g row for goan fish curry out of the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 — analysed on Indian samples, so Indian wheat and Indian milk are not swapped for American ones. It gives 125 kcal and 12.5 g protein per 100 g.
  2. Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 katori at 150 g (coconut and kokum base). That weight is the number other calorie sites decline to state, and it is where their answers stop being answers.
  3. Multiply, linearly, and print the working: 125 × 150 ÷ 100 = 188 kcal per katori. Nothing is rounded up, adjusted or smoothed — two katori are exactly twice one.
  4. Reconcile the energy against its own macronutrients with Atwater factors on every build. A row more than 15% away from 4P + 4C + 9F (20% above 6 g of fibre) stops the build rather than shipping.

The 100 g column, kept for the record

Because every other site quotes it, and because you should be able to check our arithmetic against theirs.

Where goan fish curry sits in an Indian plate

Among the 20 chicken, mutton, fish & egg entries on this site, goan fish curry ranks 15th for protein (12.5 g per 100 g) and 18th for energy density (125 kcal per 100 g). The protein leader in the group is chicken tikka at 25.0 g.

Protein supplies 40% of its energy, which is high for an Indian staple and the reason it keeps you full longer than the calorie count suggests. There is very little fibre here — 1.0 g per 100 g.

A realistic day matters more than any single dish. If you are building a meal, the thali builder adds several foods and their real servings together in one total.

Questions

How many calories are in 1 katori?

About 188 kcal for 1 katori, taken as 150 g (coconut and kokum base). Two come to roughly 375 kcal and three to 563 kcal. Per 100 g, goan fish curry carries 125 kcal.

How much protein is in goan fish curry?

12.5 g per 100 g, which works out to 18.8 g in 1 katori. That is 40% of the energy in this food, and ranks 15th of 20 in the chicken, mutton, fish & egg group on this site.

Is goan fish curry good for weight loss?

At 125 kcal per 100 g it is on the lighter side, so portion size is forgiving. The protein share is high enough to be genuinely filling. 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 coconut and kokum base. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

Where this number comes from

From the composition tables, not re-checked against a named row. This site does not claim a carbohydrate basis for this figure. Either it is a hand-entered composite with no stored ingredient list to derive one from, or the named table row disagrees with what is published here by too much to say which basis the number is on.

Every food on this site carries this label. What each one means, and how many foods sit behind each, is set out on the method page.

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.
