What it takes to burn off 1 missi roti of missi roti

Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 138 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.

Where missi roti sits in an Indian plate

Among the 20 breads & rotis entries on this site, missi roti ranks 2nd for protein (9.0 g per 100 g) and 15th for energy density (250 kcal per 100 g). The protein leader in the group is paneer paratha at 9.0 g.

Protein supplies 14% of its energy — respectable, but a plate built only on this will run short. Dal, curd, paneer or eggs close the gap cheaply. Fibre is genuinely high at 8.0 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 missi roti?

About 138 kcal for 1 missi roti, taken as 55 g (atta and besan mix, lightly oiled). Two come to roughly 275 kcal and three to 413 kcal. Per 100 g, missi roti carries 250 kcal.

How much protein is in missi roti?

9.0 g per 100 g, which works out to 5.0 g in 1 missi roti. That is 14% of the energy in this food, and ranks 2nd of 20 in the breads & rotis group on this site.

Is missi roti good for weight loss?

At 250 kcal per 100 g it is mid-range — it fits a deficit if the portion is measured rather than eyeballed. Protein is moderate, so pair it with dal, curd or a non-veg side to stay full. 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 atta and besan mix, lightly oiled. 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.
