Sabudana Vada calories
per serving, not per 100 g
The short answer
One serving, weighed
262kcal 2 vadas — taken as 80 g — has about 262 calories, with 2.6 g protein, 28.5 g carbohydrate and 15.3 g fat. Two come to 523 kcal, three to 785 kcal.
Per 100 g, sabudana vada carries 327 kcal మరియు 3.2 g protein.

పట్టికలోని ఒక వరుస నుండి ఒక సర్వింగ్కు
- Read the per-100 g row for sabudana vada 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 327 kcal మరియు 3.2 g protein per 100 g.
- Weigh what is actually served. This site enters 2 vadas at 80 g (deep-fried tapioca and potato patties). 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: 327 × 80 ÷ 100 = 262 kcal ఒక్కో సర్వింగ్కు. ఏదీ పెంచి చూపలేదు, సర్దుబాటు చేయలేదు, సమం చేయలేదు — రెండు సర్వింగ్లు కచ్చితంగా ఒకదానికి రెట్టింపు.
- 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 2 vadas (80 g) |
|---|---|---|
| Energy | 327 kcal | 262 kcal |
| Protein | 3.2 g | 2.6 g |
| Carbohydrate (available) | 35.6 g | 28.5 g |

What it takes to burn off 2 vadas of sabudana vada
Minutes of activity for a 70 kg adult to spend 262 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 sabudana vada sits in an Indian plate
Among the 14 breakfast entries on this site, sabudana vada ranks ప్రొటీన్కు 10వ (3.2 g per 100 g) and 2nd for energy density (327 kcal per 100 g). The protein leader in the group is moong dal chilla at 8.5 g.
Protein supplies only 4% of its energy, so treat it as an energy food rather than a protein food. There is very little fibre here — 1.9 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.
ప్రశ్నలు
How many calories are in 2 vadas?
About 262 kcal for 2 vadas, taken as 80 g (deep-fried tapioca and potato patties). Two come to roughly 523 kcal and three to 785 kcal. Per 100 g, sabudana vada carries 327 kcal.
How much protein is in sabudana vada?
3.2 g per 100 g, which works out to 2.6 g in 2 vadas. That is 4% of the energy in this food, and ranks 10th of 14 in the breakfast group on this site.
Is sabudana vada good for weight loss?
100 gకి 327 kcal ఉంది కాబట్టి ఇందులో శక్తి సాంద్రత ఎక్కువ, అందుకే పరిమాణమే అన్నీ నిర్ణయిస్తుంది. ప్రోటీన్ తక్కువ, కాబట్టి దీన్ని ఒక్కదాన్నే కాకుండా ఒక ప్రోటీన్ మూలంతో కలిపి తినండి. ఏ ఒక్క ఆహారమూ డైట్ను నిలబెట్టదు, పాడుచేయదు; ఆ రోజు మొత్తమే ముఖ్యం.
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 deep-fried tapioca and potato patties. A restaurant version can be 30 to 60% higher.

సేకరించిన పదార్థాల ఆధారంగా చేసిన రెసిపీ విశ్లేషణ. ఇక్కడ కార్బోహైడ్రేట్ అంటే అందుబాటులో ఉన్న కార్బోహైడ్రేట్ — డైటరీ ఫైబర్ను మినహాయించి విడిగా ఇవ్వబడింది.
రెసిపీ మరియు వండిన తర్వాత బరువు: 25 g soaked sabudana, 35 g boiled potato and 8 g crushed peanuts, patted out and deep-fried; about 12 g of oil is absorbed. Finished weight 80 g, two vadas.
Confidence in the quantities: low. This dish varies enormously by household and by shop. Read the recipe below as one plausible version, not as the dish — the frying oil or the reduction, not the ingredients, is what decides the energy.
Source row: USDA FDC 169717, Tapioca, pearl, dry; IFCT 2017 F006, Potato, brown skin, big (Solanum tuberosum), boiled; IFCT 2017 H012, Ground nut. Energy on this row is the Atwater sum of the ingredients above, not an independent measurement, so it reconciles by construction — that is a property of the method and not evidence that the quantities are right. The ingredient weights are this site's assumption; the table rows behind each ingredient are not. Cooking fat is the largest single assumption here and is stated in the recipe rather than buried in the total. Absorbed oil is 15% of the finished weight here and about half the energy. Sabudana takes up oil greedily and a home batch fried in a small pan will run higher than this.
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.
