Cooked basmati — long-grain Indian rice, fluffy texture.
Lower GI than other white rices (~60 vs 75). Common in Indian and Middle Eastern dishes.
Best for
- training days and glycogen refill — 25g carbs / 100g
- budget meals where cheap energy density matters
Watch out
- portion creep — cooked volume looks bigger than the grams you meant
- sauces and oils that turn a carb staple into a hidden calorie sink
How to log it
Weigh cooked basmati rice (cooked) if that is the state in the DB serving. 1 cup (~158g) is the practical unit in the app.
Where it fits the day
Best next to a protein source. Alone it is fuel, not a complete macro plan.
Cooked, grilled, fried & breaded
Plain basmati rice (cooked) is the baseline above. Oil, frying, and restaurant prep usually raise the estimate — typical kcal per 100g:
| Method | Typical kcal / 100g | Why it moves |
|---|---|---|
| Plain cooked | ~121 | Matches the page numbers |
| Cooked with oil or butter | ~139–169 | Fat mixed through or on top |
| Fried / restaurant style | ~163–218 | Wok oil, deep-fry, or heavy glaze |
These are typical ranges, not lab measurements. Restaurant recipes, oils, and sauces vary — treat them as logging estimates and edit if your plate looks heavier.
