I think the amount of oil used in these dishes must be MINIMAL because the calorie count is pretty low!
as one TEASPOON of olive oil contains approx- 40-50 calories!
that's what i'm thinking..the calories seem too low.
Re: Desi Calorie Counter
also, would anyone know how many calories are in a medium sized roti made from whole wheat atta?
^ Just an off topic question, do you COOK in olive oil? :s
