Why it is built this way
- Protein is 88 g (17% of calories). Most of it comes from sprouts salad (20 g), chole (18 g), moong dal chilla (18 g).
- Rotis and rice are the dial: one roti is about 99 kcal and half a katori of rice about 97 kcal, so add or remove them to move the day by 100 kcal.
- Oil is the hidden number. The recipes assume 5–8 g per katori of dal or sabzi; a heavy hand adds 50–100 kcal per dish.
- Without dairy, pulses and sprouts carry the protein. Add soya chunks (a handful gives about 13 g) if you need more.
