What's in USDA's rajma
USDA doesn't list a rajma recipe. The closest record is red kidney beans boiled from dried and cooked with vegetable oil (7%), without an onion-tomato masala.
Per 100 g it also has 6.9 g of fiber.
What changes the number at home
- Home rajma has an onion, tomato and spice gravy. A thin gravy means fewer beans per bowl, so fewer calories; a thick one is closer to USDA's value.
- The oil in the masala varies from house to house. Each teaspoon adds about 41 kcal.
- Rajma chawal is two foods. Log the rice separately.
