# Sambar — Calories & Nutrition Facts

> Sambar has 71 calories per 100g, with 2.84g protein, 7.84g carbs, and 3.09g fat — verified against official HPB Singapore data.

**Not the same number:** the 71 kcal above is per 100g. A full HPB-recorded bowl of Sambar weighs 339g, which works out to approximately 241 kcal total (this factors in HPB's edible-portion percentage, not just raw weight, so it isn't a simple per-100g × weight calculation) — don't combine the per-100g figure with the whole-bowl figure, they measure different serving sizes.
