Is 2 katori too much?

It depends entirely on the rest of the day. 285 kcal is roughly 14% of a 2,000 kcal day and 18% of a 1,600 kcal day. The honest answer is that 2 katori rarely makes a meal on its own — what goes with it usually decides the total.

Serving assumed: 1 katori ≈ 150 g — roasted aubergine with onion and tomato, 1 teaspoon of oil. Change the portion and every number below changes with it.

From a table row to one katori

Read the per-100 g row for baingan bharta 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 95 kcal and 1.8 g protein per 100 g.
Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 katori at 150 g (roasted aubergine with onion and tomato, 1 teaspoon of oil). That weight is the number other calorie sites decline to state, and it is where their answers stop being answers.
Multiply, linearly, and print the working: 95 × 150 ÷ 100 = 143 kcal per katori. Nothing is rounded up, adjusted or smoothed — two katori are exactly twice one.
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.

per katori   =  per 100 g  ×  serving grams ÷ 100
Baingan Bharta     =     95 kcal ×  150 g ÷ 100  =  143 kcal

Questions

How many calories are in 2 katori?

About 285 kcal, taking one katori as 150 g (roasted aubergine with onion and tomato, 1 teaspoon of oil). That is 5.4 g protein, 22.5 g carbohydrate and 19.5 g fat across 300 g of food.

2 കട്ടോറി കൂടുതലാണോ?

അത് പൂർണമായും ദിവസത്തിന്റെ ബാക്കി ഭാഗത്തെ ആശ്രയിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നു. 285 kcal എന്നത് 2,000 kcal ദിവസത്തിന്റെ ഏകദേശം 14% ഉം 1,600 kcal ദിവസത്തിന്റെ 18% ഉം ആണ്. സത്യസന്ധമായ ഉത്തരം ഇതാണ്: 2 കട്ടോറി ഒറ്റയ്ക്ക് ഒരു ഭക്ഷണമാകുന്നത് അപൂർവമാണ് — അതിനൊപ്പം കഴിക്കുന്നതാണ് സാധാരണയായി ആകെത്തുക നിർണയിക്കുന്നത്.

2 കട്ടോറി കത്തിച്ചുകളയാൻ എത്ര സമയമെടുക്കും?

Roughly 66 minutes of easy walking, 54 minutes of brisk walking or 24 minutes of running for a 70 kg adult. Useful for scale — not a licence, since appetite rises with activity.

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.
