Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate; fibre is listed separately and is in neither the carbohydrate column nor the energy figure. Energy is reconciled against 4P + 4C + 9F on every build.
Recipe analysis: Recipe analysis. Built from an ingredient list, each ingredient taken from a sourced row in this dataset, divided by the finished weight.
Recipe used: 40 g raw samak, 30 g boiled potato, cumin and sendha namak, cooked in 5 g of ghee with water absorbed. Finished weight 150 g, one katori.
Read this with it: Energy on this row is the Atwater sum of the ingredients above, not an independent measurement. Change the ghee and everything moves.
How samak rice pulao is counted here
- The serving is the portion this food is actually eaten in — 1 katori, taken as 150 g — not an anonymous 100 g.
- Composition is read off a named row: Recipe analysis, and the label on that row is printed above rather than hidden.
- Carbohydrate is available carbohydrate. Where a source publishes carbohydrate by difference, the fibre is subtracted here and the subtraction is stated.
- Energy is reconciled against Atwater factors on every build; a value that disagrees with its own macros does not ship.
serving kcal = 126 kcal/100 g × (150 g ÷ 100) = 189 kcal check = 4·P + 4·C + 9·F (±15%, ±20% high-fibre)

Questions
Is samak rice pulao eaten during a vrat?
It is commonly eaten during a phalahar vrat in most households. Customs differ by family, region and community — this describes what is usual, not what is required. On this site it appears in the food list for Ekadashi, Amavasya Vrat, Somvar Vrat.
How many calories are in 1 katori of samak rice pulao?
About 189 kcal for 1 katori, taken as 150 g (barnyard millet cooked with potato and a teaspoon of ghee). That is 3.0 g protein, 30.6 g carbohydrate and 6.0 g fat. Per 100 g it carries 126 kcal.
Is samak rice pulao filling, or just energy?
Protein supplies only about 6% of its energy, so treat it as fuel rather than as something that will keep you full. Fibre is moderate at 3.0 g per 100 g. On a vrat that matters more than usual, because so much of the permitted food list is rapidly digested starch.

Practices are described as commonly observed; customs differ by family, region, community and sampradaya, and this site is not an authority on any of them. Food values come from the Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN), the older ICMR–NIN tables, USDA FoodData Central, named composition studies and the shared ThaliFacts dataset, reconciled against Atwater factors on every build.
