Where the calories come from

Like most Indian staples, it is mainly carbohydrate. Pairing it with curd, paneer, eggs, chicken or a protein-rich dal adds the protein it lacks.

With rice dishes the portion is the number. A katori holds about 150 g of cooked rice, and a full plate is often 250 to 350 g, so a second helping can matter more than which rice you chose. Weigh a usual plate once and you will know your real serving.
