Roti Canai Calories: Kosong, Telur, Bawang and the Curry

By the NutriKaki Team · Figures from HPB Singapore data for the closest matching dish · Updated October 2026

Roti canai is the mamak classic: flaky, griddled flatbread torn into dhal or curry, usually with a teh tarik on the side. Singapore calls the same bread roti prata, and HPB's database lists "roti canai" as another name for its plain prata. That makes this one of the closest matches between Singapore data and a Malaysian dish.

Each figure is for the gram weight shown. HPB weighed its pieces as served in Singapore; HPB's roti telur piece (119 g) is lighter than its kosong piece (141 g) and also lower per 100 g (278 versus 352 kcal), so it comes out lower even though egg is added.

Dhal, Curry and the Kuah Banjir Question

HPB's set includes 253 g of curry at 250 kcal. HPB has no separate dhal row, so if you take dhal only, the curry figure is not a direct match. Ordering kuah banjir (extra gravy) adds to both calories and sodium; the curry alone carries 1,771mg of sodium in HPB's measurement.

Scaling to Your Plate

Roti canai kosong works out to 352 kcal per 100 g in HPB's data.
