Why puran poli calorie numbers differ
Puran poli is a soft sweet flatbread of wheat dough filled with cooked chana dal and jaggery, then cooked on a tawa with ghee. Calories depend on how much filling is packed inside, how sweet the jaggery mix is, and how freely ghee is brushed on the poli and poured over it at the table. A festival poli swimming in ghee is richer than a plain home poli.
One extra teaspoon of ghee or oil (5 g) adds 45 kcal, 18% of the calories in 1 puran poli.
The numbers here are for a standard home recipe at 70 g per puran poli. Weigh your portion or compare it with that weight.
