Assumed: 1 katori ≈ 150 g — fox nuts simmered in milk with sugar and a few nuts.
Makhana Kheer by portion
Everything scales linearly from the 150 g serving. If your portion is bigger, so is the number.
| ಪ್ರಮಾಣ | ಗ್ರಾಂ | ಕ್ಯಾಲೊರಿಗಳು | ಪ್ರೋಟೀನ್ | ಕಾರ್ಬ್ಸ್ | ಕೊಬ್ಬು | ನಾರು |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × 1 katori | 150 g | 185 kcal | 5.9 g | 27.2 g | 5.9 g | 0.3 g |
| 2 × 1 katori | 300 g | 369 kcal | 11.7 g | 54.3 g | 11.7 g | 0.6 g |
| 3 × 1 katori | 450 g | 554 kcal | 17.6 g | 81.5 g | 17.6 g | 0.9 g |
| Per 100 g | 100 g | 123 kcal | 3.9 g | 18.1 g | 3.9 g | 0.2 g |
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: 12 g makhana simmered in 125 g full-cream milk with 12 g sugar and 3 g slivered almonds. 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. Its fibre figure inherits a known gap: the ICMR–NIN table never determined crude fibre for makhana, so the fibre shown here is understated and should not be read as a measurement.
How makhana kheer 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 = 123 kcal/100 g × (150 g ÷ 100) = 185 kcal check = 4·P + 4·C + 9·F (±15%, ±20% high-fibre)
Observances it appears in
Where makhana kheer shows up in the food customarily associated with an observance on this site. This is a description of common practice, not a rule.
Where it sits on a fasting plate
Among the 25 entries in vrat dishes on this site, makhana kheer ranks 15 of 25 for energy density at 123 kcal per 100 g.
Protein supplies 13% of its energy. That is respectable for the permitted list, but a whole day built on foods like this will still run short — see protein during a vrat.
It sits mid-range for energy density, so a measured portion behaves predictably.
ಪ್ರಶ್ನೆಗಳು
Is makhana kheer 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 Krishna Janmashtami, Purnima Vrat.
How many calories are in 1 katori of makhana kheer?
About 185 kcal for 1 katori, taken as 150 g (fox nuts simmered in milk with sugar and a few nuts). That is 5.9 g protein, 27.2 g carbohydrate and 5.9 g fat. Per 100 g it carries 123 kcal.
Is makhana kheer filling, or just energy?
Protein supplies about 13% of its energy, which is moderate. Pair it with curd, milk or nuts where your observance permits. Fibre is low at 0.2 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. Which source applies to which food is listed per food, and every source carries the date it was last checked. General information only — not medical or religious guidance. Fasting is not safe for everyone, particularly during pregnancy or with diabetes or other conditions. Speak to a doctor first.
