Lauki Sabzi calories
प्रति वाटी, प्रति 100 g नाही
The short answer
एक वाटी, वजन केलेली
63kcal 1 वाटी — असे धरले 150 g — has about 63 calories, with 0.9 g protein, 3.0 g carbohydrate and 5.3 g fat. Two come to 126 kcal, three to 189 kcal.
Per 100 g, lauki sabzi carries 42 kcal आणि 0.6 g protein.

Serving assumed: 1 वाटी ≈ 150 g — bottle gourd with a light tempering — the lightest thing on most thalis. Change the portion and every number below changes with it.

From a table row to one katori
- Read the per-100 g row for lauki sabzi 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 42 kcal आणि 0.6 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 katori at 150 g (bottle gourd with a light tempering — the lightest thing on most thalis). 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: 42 × 150 ÷ 100 = 63 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.

Kept in kilocalories — the "calories" printed on a packet. Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate. Fibre is entered on its own line and is counted in neither the carbohydrate column nor the energy figure.
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.
| Nutrient | Per 100 g | Per 1 katori (150 g) |
|---|---|---|
| Energy | 42 kcal | 63 kcal |
| Protein | 0.6 g | 0.9 g |
| Carbohydrate (available) | 2.0 g | 3.0 g |
| Fat | 3.5 g | 5.3 g |
| Dietary fibre | 2.3 g | 3.4 g |

What it takes to burn off 1 katori of lauki sabzi
Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 63 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.
Where lauki sabzi sits in an Indian plate
Among the 28 paneer & vegetable curries entries on this site, lauki sabzi ranks 28th for protein (0.6 g per 100 g) and 28th for energy density (100 g मागे 42 kcal). या गटात प्रथिनांमध्ये आघाडीवर पनीर आहे — 18.3 g.
Protein supplies only 6% of its energy, so treat it as an energy food rather than a protein food. Fibre is moderate at 2.3 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.
प्रश्न
How many calories are in 1 katori?
About 63 kcal for 1 katori, taken as 150 g (bottle gourd with a light tempering — the lightest thing on most thalis). Two come to roughly 126 kcal and three to 189 kcal. Per 100 g, lauki sabzi carries 42 kcal.
How much protein is in lauki sabzi?
0.6 g per 100 g, which works out to 0.9 g in 1 katori. That is 6% of the energy in this food, and ranks 28th of 28 in the paneer & vegetable curries group on this site.
Is lauki sabzi good for weight loss?
प्रति 100 g मध्ये 42 kcal असल्याने हे तुलनेने हलके आहे, त्यामुळे वाढून घेण्याच्या प्रमाणात थोडी सूट मिळते. प्रथिने कमी आहेत, म्हणून ते एकटे न खाता प्रथिनांच्या एखाद्या पदार्थासोबत खा. कोणताही एक पदार्थ आहार बनवत किंवा बिघडवत नाही; दिवसभराची एकूण बेरीज ठरवते.
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 bottle gourd with a light tempering — the lightest thing on most thalis. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

Where this number comes from
स्रोत नोंदवलेल्या घटकांवरून केलेले पाककृतीचे विश्लेषण. कर्बोदके म्हणजे उपलब्ध कर्बोदके — आहारातील तंतू वगळून तो स्वतंत्रपणे दिला आहे.
पाककृती आणि तयार पदार्थाचे वजन: 145 g bottle gourd cooked down with 20 g tomato in about 5 g of oil. Finished weight 150 g, one katori.
प्रमाणांबाबतचा विश्वास: मध्यम. यात कशाचे किती प्रमाण घातले याबद्दल खरोखर एक गृहीतक आहे, पण ते सामान्य प्रमाणाच्या अरुंद पट्ट्यातच बसते.
स्रोत ओळ: IFCT 2017 D007, Bottle gourd, elongate, pale green (Lagenaria vulgaris); IFCT 2017 D076, Tomato, ripe, local (Solanum lycopersicum). 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. Lauki is more than 95% water — IFCT D007 puts it at 1.7 g of available carbohydrate and 11 kcal per 100 g — so almost the entire energy of this katori is the oil, and the vegetable itself is close to free. The hand-entered figure it replaces implied a much denser gourd than any IFCT row supports.
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.
