Calories in 2 डोसे

The short answer

2 dosas, weighed

570kcal 2 dosas — 300 g in total — comes to about 570 calories, with 11.4 g protein, 78.0 g carbohydrate and 24.0 g fat.

Serving assumed: 1 masala dosa ≈ 150 g — with potato filling and oil on the tawa; a ghee roast runs higher. Change the portion and every number below changes with it.

From a table row to one dosa

Read the per-100 g row for masala dosa 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 190 kcal आणि 3.8 g protein per 100 g.
Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 masala dosa at 150 g (with potato filling and oil on the tawa; a ghee roast runs higher). 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: 190 × 150 ÷ 100 = 285 kcal per dosa. Nothing is rounded up, adjusted or smoothed — two dosas 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 dosa   =  per 100 g  ×  serving grams ÷ 100
Masala Dosa        =    190 kcal ×  150 g ÷ 100  =  285 kcal

What it takes to burn off 2 dosas

Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 570 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.

प्रश्न

How many calories are in 2 dosas?

About 570 kcal, taking one dosa as 150 g (with potato filling and oil on the tawa; a ghee roast runs higher). That is 11.4 g protein, 78.0 g carbohydrate and 24.0 g fat across 300 g of food.

Is 2 dosas too much?

It depends entirely on the rest of the day. 570 kcal is roughly 28% of a 2,000 kcal day and 36% of a 1,600 kcal day. The honest answer is that 2 dosas rarely makes a meal on its own — what goes with it usually decides the total.

How long does it take to burn off 2 dosas?

Roughly 133 minutes of easy walking, 108 minutes of brisk walking or 47 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.
