From a table row to one serving
- Read the per-100 g row for paddu (paniyaram) 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 175 kcal आणि 4.0 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 4 pieces at 100 g (dosa batter cooked in a greased paniyaram pan). 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: 175 × 100 ÷ 100 = 175 kcal per serving. Nothing is rounded up, adjusted or smoothed — two servings 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 4 pieces (100 g) |
|---|---|---|
| Energy | 175 kcal | 175 kcal |
| Protein | 4.0 g | 4.0 g |
| Carbohydrate (available) | 26.0 g | 26.0 g |
| Fat | 6.0 g | 6.0 g |
| Dietary fibre | 1.8 g | 1.8 g |

What it takes to burn off 4 pieces of paddu (paniyaram)
Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 175 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 paddu (paniyaram) sits in an Indian plate
Among the 23 south indian entries on this site, paddu (paniyaram) ranks 12th for protein (4.0 g per 100 g) and 11th for energy density (175 kcal per 100 g). The protein leader in the group is medu vada at 8.0 g.
Protein supplies only 9% of its energy, so treat it as an energy food rather than a protein food. There is very little fibre here — 1.8 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 4 pieces?
About 175 kcal for 4 pieces, taken as 100 g (dosa batter cooked in a greased paniyaram pan). Two come to roughly 350 kcal and three to 525 kcal. Per 100 g, paddu (paniyaram) carries 175 kcal.
How much protein is in paddu (paniyaram)?
4.0 g per 100 g, which works out to 4.0 g in 4 pieces. That is 9% of the energy in this food, and ranks 12th of 23 in the south indian group on this site.
Is paddu (paniyaram) good for weight loss?
At 175 kcal per 100 g it is mid-range — it fits a deficit if the portion is measured rather than eyeballed. 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 dosa batter cooked in a greased paniyaram pan. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.
Similar foods
Four more from south indian, and three from elsewhere with a similar energy density.
Where this number comes from
From the composition tables, not re-checked against a named row. This site does not claim a carbohydrate basis for this figure. Either it is a hand-entered composite with no stored ingredient list to derive one from, or the named table row disagrees with what is published here by too much to say which basis the number is on.
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.
