What the chole entry describes

The current FitTrackPro food database hub lists cooked Kabuli chana / chole masala as a 175g bowl. That stored row contains 240 kcal, 13g protein, 33g carbohydrate, 6g fat and 8.5g fiber. Use the cooked serving label as the reference point; the table's other weights are estimates scaled from it.

A home bowl is not a fixed weight. If your katori is smaller or larger than 175g, weigh the cooked chole you serve and use the matching gram estimate. A heaped bowl can weigh much more than a level one. The table preserves the stored 175g serving and clearly marks the scaled rows so they are not mistaken for separately tested values.

The database calls the record “Cooked Kabuli Chana / Chole Masala,” so it should not be treated as a precise nutrition label for all plain boiled chickpeas or every chole recipe. Preparation can include onion, tomato, oil, spices and other ingredients in different amounts. The record does not provide a recipe yield or a measured amount of cooking oil, so restaurant and home versions can vary.

Count the food served with chole separately. Rice, roti, bhatura, puri, pickle and salad are not part of the 175g chole row. The rajma curry page provides another stored bean-curry reference, and the dal calculator compares cooked dal portions. Browse single-food records in the Indian food database or use the daily meal tracker to total several foods together.

The database hub has its own in-page food list, separate from the meal counter's TypeScript data. This chole page uses the 175g row currently displayed by that hub. The site's nutrition methodology explains that per-item source citations are not currently retained and that parallel lists can differ.

Method note

The 175g base value comes from the current in-page chole row on the Indian food database hub, not from a per-item IFCT citation. Other weights are estimates scaled from that entry. Recipe variations, cooking oil and accompaniments are not measured by this page. See the nutrition methodology for data limits and use the contact page to report a suspected error.

Frequently asked questions

How many calories are in one bowl of chole?

The FitTrackPro database hub lists a 175g cooked bowl of chole masala at 240 kcal. A different bowl size or recipe may have a different total.

How much protein is in 100g cooked chole?

The stored 175g bowl contains 13g protein. Scaling it to 100g gives an estimated 7.4g.

Does this number include rice or bhatura?

No. The record is for the chole entry only. Rice, bhatura, puri and other accompaniments should be counted separately.

Is this plain boiled chickpea data?

The stored entry is labelled cooked Kabuli chana / chole masala, not a separately measured plain chickpea record.

Does restaurant chole have the same calories?

Not necessarily. Oil, gravy ingredients and serving weights vary. The database row does not represent every restaurant recipe.

How are the other weights calculated?

They are estimates scaled from the 175g database serving, not separate measured records.
