Curd Rice calories
per katori, not per 100 g
The short answer
One katori, weighed
205kcal 1 katori curd rice — taken as 180 g — has about 205 calories, with 5.0 g protein, 29.2 g carbohydrate and 7.6 g fat. Two come to 410 kcal, three to 616 kcal.
Per 100 g, curd rice carries 114 kcal and 2.8 g protein.

From a table row to one katori
- Read the per-100 g row for curd rice 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 114 kcal and 2.8 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 katori curd rice at 180 g (cooked rice with curd and a light tempering). 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: 114 × 180 ÷ 100 = 205 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.

What it takes to burn off 1 katori curd rice of curd rice
Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 205 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 curd rice sits in an Indian plate
Among the 18 rice dishes entries on this site, curd rice ranks 13th for protein (2.8 g per 100 g) and 15th for energy density (114 kcal per 100 g). The protein leader in the group is mutton biryani at 8.5 g.
Protein supplies only 10% of its energy, so treat it as an energy food rather than a protein food. There is very little fibre here — 0.5 g per 100 g.

Questions
How many calories are in 1 katori curd rice?
About 205 kcal for 1 katori curd rice, taken as 180 g (cooked rice with curd and a light tempering). Two come to roughly 410 kcal and three to 616 kcal. Per 100 g, curd rice carries 114 kcal.
How much protein is in curd rice?
2.8 g per 100 g, which works out to 5.0 g in 1 katori curd rice. That is 10% of the energy in this food, and ranks 13th of 18 in the rice dishes group on this site.
Is curd rice good for weight loss?
At 114 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 cooked rice with curd and a light tempering. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

ഉറവിടം വ്യക്തമാക്കിയ ചേരുവകളിൽ നിന്നുള്ള പാചകക്കുറിപ്പ് വിശകലനം. കാർബോഹൈഡ്രേറ്റ് എന്നത് ലഭ്യമായ കാർബോഹൈഡ്രേറ്റ് ആണ് — ഭക്ഷ്യനാരുകൾ ഒഴിവാക്കി പ്രത്യേകം നൽകിയിരിക്കുന്നു.
പാചകക്കുറിപ്പും പാകം ചെയ്ത ശേഷമുള്ള ഭാരവും: 35 g raw rice boiled soft, mixed with 85 g curd and a tempering of about 4 g of oil. Finished weight 180 g, one katori.
Confidence in the quantities: medium. There is a real assumption here about how much of something went in, but it sits inside a narrow normal range.
സ്രോതസ്സ് വരി: IFCT 2017 A015, Rice, raw, milled. Energy on this row is the Atwater sum of the ingredients above, not an independent measurement, so it reconciles by construction — that is a property of the method and not evidence that the quantities are right. The ingredient weights are this site's assumption; the table rows behind each ingredient are not. Cooking fat is the largest single assumption here and is stated in the recipe rather than buried in the total. One ingredient here carries no table row of its own — curd — so this dish inherits that gap and is no more checkable than that ingredient is.
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.
