From a table row to one papad
- Read the per-100 g row for roasted papad 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 350 kcal మరియు 22.0 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 1 papad at 13 g (urad papad roasted over a flame, no oil). 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: 350 × 13 ÷ 100 = 46 kcal per papad. Nothing is rounded up, adjusted or smoothed — two papads 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.

ప్రశ్నలు
How many calories are in 1 papad?
About 46 kcal for 1 papad, taken as 13 g (urad papad roasted over a flame, no oil). Two come to roughly 91 kcal and three to 137 kcal. Per 100 g, roasted papad carries 350 kcal.
How much protein is in roasted papad?
22.0 g per 100 g, which works out to 2.9 g in 1 papad. That is 25% of the energy in this food, and ranks 2nd of 29 in the snacks & street food group on this site.
Is roasted papad good for weight loss?
At 350 kcal per 100 g it is energy-dense, so the portion decides everything. The protein share is high enough to be genuinely filling. 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 urad papad roasted over a flame, no oil. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

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.
