Pig kidney is an organ meat, also known as offal. The figures here describe fried pig kidney with the skin and core removed. It mainly provides protein and fat, along with several vitamins and minerals. Per 100g, it contains 29g of protein, 9.5g of fat, 9.1mg of iron and 28µg of vitamin B12.
Protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues. Iron is needed to make haemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood, while vitamin B12 supports normal nerve function and red blood cell formation. Frying oil and any added salt can affect the nutritional content of the prepared dish. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
