Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 300 kcal, using MET values from the 2024 Adult Compendium of Physical Activities. This is a scale check, not a licence — appetite rises with activity and the two do not cancel neatly.
Calculated as MET × 3.5 × 70 kg ÷ 200 kcal per minute. Full working on the method page, and the whole activity dataset at BurnLab.

How much protein is in keema matar?
16.0 g per 100 g, which works out to 24.0 g in 1 katori. That is 32% of the energy in this food, and ranks 7th of 20 in the chicken, mutton, fish & egg group on this site.
Is keema matar good for weight loss?
At 200 kcal per 100 g it is mid-range — it fits a deficit if the portion is measured rather than eyeballed. 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 minced mutton with peas, home style. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.
