Dishes that come out close

Counting by the katori? These are the nearest dishes of the same kind, each with its own page.

How this was worked out

The page adds up the IFCT and USDA values for every ingredient at the weight used in the sample diet charts. The weights are raw, as the tables measure them. Katori means a standard 150 ml bowl. Your cooking will differ a little, so treat the number as a good starting point and check it against how you feel and what the scale says.

Calories and nutrients are calculated from the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017, National Institute of Nutrition (ICMR), except curd, which uses USDA FoodData Central SR Legacy 171284 (plain whole-milk yogurt) because the Indian tables don't list it.
