Questions

How many calories are in 1 plate?

About 470 kcal for 1 plate, taken as 200 g (a crushed samosa under chole, curd and chutney). Two come to roughly 940 kcal and three to 1,410 kcal. Per 100 g, samosa chaat carries 235 kcal.

How much protein is in samosa chaat?

5.0 g per 100 g, which works out to 10.0 g in 1 plate. That is 9% of the energy in this food, and ranks 21st of 29 in the snacks & street food group on this site.

Is samosa chaat good for weight loss?

At 235 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 a crushed samosa under chole, curd and chutney. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

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.
