Our take

CleanPlate review

Lachha paratha of refined flour with an implausible fibre value

Keventer Lachha Paratha (Frozen) is a 400 g pack of five 80 g layered parathas, marked veg. The panel is per 100 g and matches the listing.

CleanPlate scores it [L]EB3. The E for nutrition is low: almost no credited protein, fibre or micronutrients per 100 g; its 8 g of protein earns no credit because it is under 2.75 g per 100 kcal. The declared fibre figure is not credited because the ingredients cannot supply it. The B for ingredients reflects mostly refined or industrial ingredients (led by refined wheat flour, standardised milk and vegetable oil), and almost no additives. The [L] marks a declared value that the ingredients cannot support. The 3 for risk comes mainly from saturated fat (7.5 g per 100 g) and sodium (429 mg per 100 g).

Claims vs reality

What the pack says, checked against the ingredient list and nutrition panel.

  • On the pack

    “5 g fibre per 100 g on the panel”

    Misleading

    55% refined wheat flour and milk can supply only about 1.5 g fibre per 100 g.

A closer look

Does the label add up?

Refined wheat flour (55%), water (22%), standardised milk (15%), vegetable oil (5%), sugar and salt.

Per 100 g: 348 kcal, 15.6 g fat of which 7.5 g saturated, 0 g sugar of which 0 g added, 5 g fibre, 8 g protein, 429 mg sodium. The declared fibre is more than the ingredients can supply, so it is not credited in the nutrition grade, the label takes 2 points and the score is provisional (IMPLAUSIBLE).
