Pumpkin (Kaddu), cooked plain by portion
Everything scales linearly from the 150 g serving. If your portion is bigger, so is the number.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × 1 katori | 150 g | 35 kcal | 1.2 g | 6.0 g | 0.3 g | 3.9 g |
| 2 × 1 katori | 300 g | 70 kcal | 2.4 g | 12.0 g | 0.6 g | 7.8 g |
| 3 × 1 katori | 450 g | 104 kcal | 3.6 g | 18.0 g | 0.9 g | 11.7 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.

దీనితో కలిపి చదవండి: Kaddu is more than 90% water, so per-100 g figures for it are small and the cooking fat decides almost everything on the plate. The green cylindrical variety, IFCT D065, is barely different.
How pumpkin (kaddu), cooked plain 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: Indian Food Composition Tables 2017 (ICMR–NIN) (food code D066, Pumpkin, orange, round (Cucurbita maxima)), 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 = 23 kcal/100 g × (150 g ÷ 100) = 35 kcal check = 4·P + 4·C + 9·F (±15%, ±20% high-fibre)
Where it sits on a fasting plate
Among the 9 entries in vrat vegetables & tubers on this site, pumpkin (kaddu), cooked plain ranks 6 of 9 for energy density at 23 kcal per 100 g.
Protein supplies 14% 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 is light enough that the portion is forgiving, which is rare on a vrat food list.
ప్రశ్నలు
Is pumpkin (kaddu), cooked plain 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.
How many calories are in 1 katori of pumpkin (kaddu), cooked plain?
About 35 kcal for 1 katori, taken as 150 g (steamed or boiled with no fat). That is 1.2 g protein, 6.0 g carbohydrate and 0.3 g fat. Per 100 g it carries 23 kcal.
Is pumpkin (kaddu), cooked plain filling, or just energy?
Protein supplies about 14% of its energy, which is moderate. Pair it with curd, milk or nuts where your observance permits. Fibre is moderate at 2.6 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 సాధారణంగా కనిపించేది; 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.
