The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 232 calories for 1 cup at 200 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 116 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 9.9 g protein, 2 g fiber, and 648 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is chicken curry, representing 60% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 2 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 cup at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2706438: “Chicken curry with rice.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2706438, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “125% of the reference weight” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 150 g | 174 kcal | 7.4 g | 1.5 g | 486 mg |
| 1 cupUSDA-listed household measure | 200 g | 232 kcal | 9.9 g | 2 g | 648 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 250 g | 290 kcal | 12.4 g | 2.5 g | 810 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2706438’s 200 g reference weight, the largest strength-side percentage among the nutrients evaluated here is Vitamin C; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Sodium. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.
Strength-side signals

04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Chicken curry with rice,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2706437 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 200 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 150–250 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 174 kcal and 290 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2706437
At an equal 100 g, this record has 8.6 g more carbohydrate than “Chicken curry.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Chicken curry
The source formulation has 2 input rows; Chicken curry supplies 60% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when the exact wording “Chicken curry with rice” fits. Inspect FDC 2706437 when the exact wording “Chicken curry” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 1.5 g less protein, 8.6 g more carbohydrate, and 2.5 g less total fat than “Chicken curry.”
Only this record lists Chicken curry; Rice, cooked, NFS. Only the comparison record lists Curry sauce; Vegetables as ingredient in curry; Chicken, NS as to part and cooking method, NS as to skin eaten; Vegetable oil, NFS. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
4 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.

Uncertainty, made actionable
What can change this estimate?
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with portion size, cut and fat trim, cooking method, breading, marinade, or sauce.
For “Chicken curry with rice,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
portion size
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
- 02
cut and fat trim
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
- 03
cooking method
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
- 04
breading, marinade, or sauce
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2706438 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 116 kcal per 100 g becomes 232 kcal at 200 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” The separately listed 1 cup has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2706438
FNDDS food code: 27146155
The scaling for FDC 2706438 can be exact while the match to “Chicken curry with rice” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 200 g weight, 2-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
