Is neer dosa good for weight loss?
At 120 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 thin rice-batter dosa cooked with almost no oil. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.
