One paneer paratha is about 251 kcal, with 10 g of protein, 30 g of carbohydrate, 4.8 g of fibre and 10 g of fat. Everything below is worked out from the ingredients, one by one.
Paneer paratha: calories from 1 to 4 parathas
Each row is the whole dish at that amount, so you can read off what you ate.
| Amount | Calories (kcal) | Protein (g) | Carbs (g) | Fat (g) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 paneer paratha | 251 | 10 | 30 | 10 |
| 2 paneer parathas | 503 | 20 | 59 | 20 |
| 3 paneer parathas | 754 | 30 | 89 | 30 |

Numbers are for home cooking with the oil listed. How they were worked out is at the end of the page.
What goes into it
This is a standard home recipe, not one of the diet chart dishes: these are the weights the numbers come from. Your cook's version will differ, so check the oil and the portion.
| Ingredient | Amount | Calories (kcal) |
|---|---|---|
| Atta (whole wheat flour) | 40 g | 128 |
| Paneer | 30 g | 77 |
| Green chillies | 2 g | 1 |
| Coriander leaves (Hara dhania) | 3 g | 1 |
| Ghee | 5 g | 44 |
| Total | 251 |
- Oil: the ghee is 44 kcal of the 251. Without the ghee, 1 paneer paratha would come to about 207 kcal.
- Measure it: the oil is the part of this number you decide, so measure it with a spoon rather than pouring.
Each ingredient links to its own page, and the thali calorie calculator has this dish, so you can add it to the rest of your plate.

How this was worked out
The page adds up the IFCT values for every ingredient at the weight of a standard home recipe. The weights are raw, as the tables measure them, and the oil is the oil in the recipe. 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).
