Why aloo matar calorie numbers differ
Aloo matar is potato and green peas in an onion and tomato gravy. The oil used in the masala and the amount of potato against gravy decide the calories, and a thin, watery curry from a canteen differs from a thick home curry with oil floating on top. Look at how much potato lands in your bowl, then compare it with the portion shown.
One extra teaspoon of ghee or oil (5 g) adds 45 kcal, 16% of the calories in 1 bowl of aloo matar.
The numbers here are for a standard home recipe at 277 g per bowl. Weigh your portion or compare it with that weight.
