Rajma chawal calories and macros

One plate of rajma chawal (a katori of rajma plus a cup of cooked rice) has roughly 418 calories, with about 15.4 g protein, 73 g carbohydrate, and 6.9 g fat. This is the quiet overachiever of North Indian plates. The rajma alone is about 223 calories with 11.4 g protein and 9 g of fibre, and 150 g of cooked white rice adds about 195 calories. At under 7 g of fat for the whole plate, it is a fraction of what a katori of paneer butter masala carries, and the beans and rice together form a complete protein. Most of the variation comes from how heavy the tadka is and how much rice ends up on the plate: a light homestyle version lands near 380 calories, while a restaurant plate with a ghee finish and a bigger rice portion can reach 520.
