Why curd rice calorie numbers differ
Curd rice is soft rice mashed with curd and a little milk, then finished with a tadka of curry leaves, green chilli, ginger and asafoetida. The fat in the curd and milk and the oil in the tempering move the calories, so thick set curd from whole milk is richer than thin curd made from toned milk. The rice-to-curd ratio matters too.
One extra teaspoon of ghee or oil (5 g) adds 45 kcal, 11% of the calories in half a plate of curd rice.
The numbers here are for a standard home recipe at 216 g per half plate. Weigh your portion or compare it with that weight.
