Roti Prata Calories: Plain, Egg, Cheese, Murtabak — All Ranked
From plain kosong to loaded cheese murtabak — every prata variation ranked by calories with tips to enjoy it guilt-free.
The Prata Calorie Spectrum
Roti prata is Singapore's favourite supper food — crispy, flaky, dipped in curry. A plain prata is a relatively modest ~220 calories. But prata shops offer so many variations that your "supper" can easily become a full meal's worth of calories.
Here's the full ranking from lightest to heaviest.
Prata Calorie Ranking
| Prata Type | Calories | Verdict |
|---|---|---|
| Plain prata (kosong) | ~220 | Lightest |
| Paper prata (crispy thin) | ~200 | Best |
| Egg prata (telur) | ~300 | Good |
| Onion prata | ~260 | Good |
| Mushroom prata | ~290 | Good |
| Cheese prata | ~380 | Moderate |
| Banana prata | ~340 | Moderate |
| Plaster prata (egg + cheese) | ~450 | Heavy |
| Murtabak (mutton) | ~520 | Heavy |
| Murtabak (chicken) | ~480 | Heavy |
*Per piece. Add ~50 kcal for each curry dip cup (fish curry is lighter than dhal).
Smart Prata Ordering
The 2-prata rule: Most people order 2 pratas. That's where choices compound:
- 2× plain = ~440 kcal ✅
- 2× egg = ~600 kcal ⚠️
- 1× cheese + 1× murtabak = ~900 kcal 🔴
Best supper combo: 1 egg prata + 1 plain + teh-C kosong = ~540 kcal total. Satisfying, reasonable, still feels like a proper supper.
Skip the curry? Don't. The fish curry dip is only ~50 kcal and makes the experience. The dhal is slightly more at ~70 kcal. Both are worth it.
