Why rajma calorie numbers differ
Rajma is red kidney beans simmered in an onion, tomato, ginger and garlic gravy with garam masala, usually eaten with rice. The oil used to fry the masala, and any butter or cream restaurants stir in, are the main variables, along with how many beans against how much gravy lands in your katori. Beans are dense, so a bean-heavy scoop adds more.
One extra teaspoon of ghee or oil (5 g) adds 45 kcal, 26% of the calories in 1 small katori of rajma.
The numbers here are for a standard home recipe at 120 g per small katori. Weigh your portion or compare it with that weight.
