This tool helps you quickly calculate the total calories you consume from eating samosas.
How to Use the Calorie Calculator Samosa
This calculator helps you estimate the total number of calories in your samosas based on their weight, filling type, size, cooking method (deep fried or not), and quantity.
How It Works
Simply input the weight of one samosa in grams, select the type of filling, choose the size of the samosa, indicate if it is deep fried, and specify the number of samosas. Click the Calculate button to view the total calories.
Explanation
The calculator uses the following base calorie values per gram for different fillings:
- Potato: 2.5 kcal/g
- Meat: 3.5 kcal/g
- Vegetable: 2.0 kcal/g
The size modifier adjusts the base calories: Small (0.8), Medium (1.0), Large (1.2). If the samosa is deep fried, a multiplier of 1.2 is applied to account for the oil absorption.
Limitations
This calculator provides an estimation based on typical values and may not account for all variations in recipes and cooking methods. For precise nutritional information, consider consulting with a dietitian.
