What Katori is, what we found, and the assets to use. No email needed first.
Katori is a calorie and macro tracker built specifically for Indian food. Generic trackers were trained on sandwiches and salads, so they guess at a thali: they log soya chaap as chicken, paneer as tofu, and miss the ghee entirely. Katori starts from a dish database built for desi meals, where every published number is calculated from a stated recipe rather than copied from another chart. The accuracy work is public: 45 dishes with their recipe basis, confidence level and preparation spread, plus an audit of where the commonly quoted figures fall apart.
Key findings
Quotable, and every figure is published with the recipe it came from.
Soya chaap is routinely quoted at 18 to 20 grams of protein. For the dish most people actually eat, it is about 9.
Published figures for dal makhani range from 90 to 300 calories a serving. That is not measurement error, it is different recipes wearing the same name.
Indian food nutrition data is genuinely broken, and if you are tracking calories, you deserve to know by how much.
Composed Indian dishes do not exist in any nutrition database, so each figure is built from a defined standard recipe, summing ingredient-level values from USDA FoodData Central.
The dataset
Headline calories and macros for all 45 dishes, one row each, free to reuse with attribution. Download the CSV (45 dishes). The recipe basis, confidence level and preparation spread behind each number live on the individual dish pages.
Brand assets
The wordmark is available as the social card (1200 x 630 PNG) and the bowl mark as an SVG icon. For vector logo files, print resolution or anything else, email us and we will send them over.
