Dosa, filling, vegetable, homemade

This homemade vegetable filling is prepared for use inside dosa pancakes. The figures describe the filling alone, rather than a complete filled dosa. It mainly provides carbohydrate and fat, with a smaller amount of protein. Per 100g, it contains 10g of carbohydrate, 6.3g of fat, 1.8g of protein and 1.1g of salt.

Carbohydrate and fat provide energy, while protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake, as salt from the pancake and any accompaniments also contributes to the meal’s total.
