Sugar, saturated fat and salt
These come from the USDA reference record below, not from our own data — they describe a comparable food rather than this exact preparation. Salt and sugar in home cooking vary with the recipe.
| Sugars | 6.2 g |
| Saturated fat | 0.76 g |
| Sodium | 537 mg |
| Iron | 3.33 mg |
| Calcium | 119 mg |
What changes the number
A slice of white bread is about 80 kcal, which makes two slices comparable to one and a half rotis — the difference is fibre and how quickly it digests, not calories. White bread is also a salt delivery system: the USDA reference alongside shows over 500 mg of sodium per 100 g in a commercial loaf, and Indian bakery bread is not obviously better. What goes on it usually matters more than the bread; butter and jam can double the slice.

Cross-checked against USDA FoodData Central (Bread, white, commercially prepared, toasted), which gives 290 kcal per 100 g — a 9.4% difference.
Home recipes vary, especially in oil and ghee.
