What to know about iD Fresh Organic Idly & Dosa Batter
Five organic ingredients, 80 kcal per idly
A 500 g pack of chilled idly and dosa batter made from organic idly rice, organic urad dal, organic fenugreek, iodised salt and RO-purified water. No percentages are declared. It is bought by people who want idlies and dosas at home with the batter ready to use straight from the pack.
Per 100 g the batter has 114.62 kcal, 6.23 g protein, 23.41 g carbohydrate, 0.94 g fibre, 0.11 g fat and no sugar. One 50 g idly gives about 80 kcal, 4.4 g protein and 130.5 mg sodium. The pack says it makes about 10 idlies or 7 dosas.
The name says organic, and every plant ingredient in the list is named as organic. The pack also notes it is made in a facility that processes wheat. CleanPlate scores it EA1.
Why iD Fresh Organic Idly & Dosa Batter scores EA1
Nutrition is an E because the batter is mostly rice, with 6.23 g protein and 0.94 g fibre per 100 g. Ingredients are an A for a short organic list with no additives, and risk is a 1.

- Fibre

- Energy

01 Nutrition density: why E
Protein is 6.23 g per 100 g, and the largest source is the organic urad dal. The rest of the energy comes from rice, with 23.41 g carbohydrate per 100 g.
Fibre is only 0.94 g per 100 g and no vitamins or minerals are declared, so little else adds to the grade. One idly gives 4.4 g protein and 0.66 g fibre.
Scored on protein, fibre and twelve vitamins and minerals, against the Codex and FSSAI "source" and "high" levels, per 100 g and per 100 kcal. Protein also has to supply at least 12.5% of the calories to count, and 25% for full credit.

02 Ingredient integrity: why A
The list is five items: organic idly rice, organic urad dal, organic fenugreek, iodised salt and RO-purified water. There are no additives, no flavourings, no hydrogenated fat and no sweetener, so nothing costs ingredient points.
No label promise is hollow, so there is no [L] flag. The only gap is that the ingredient percentages are not printed, so the split between rice and dal is not known.
Scored on how processed the ingredients are, which additives are used and why, and whether the label keeps its promises.

- Added sugar
- 0 g

- Saturated fat

- Trans fat
- 0.1 g
03 Load risk: why 1
Sodium is the largest part of the risk number at 186.43 mg per 100 g, about 130.5 mg in one idly. It is still well inside what a light batter should carry.
Sugar is 0 g, saturated fat 0.1 g and energy 114.62 kcal per 100 g. A trans fat of 0.1 g per 100 g is declared, and because no hydrogenated fat is listed, it is accepted as printed.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.
