What to know about Prolicious Protein Khakhra - Chilli Coriander, Methi & Jeera
Real protein and fibre, with 985 mg sodium
Prolicious Protein Khakhra is a 170 g pack of 10 thin roasted flatbreads made from whole wheat flour, defatted peanut flour, rice bran oil, Bengal gram, salt, cumin and turmeric. It is sold as a Jain, plant-based crunchy snack for people who want more protein than a regular khakhra gives.
One serve is 3 khakhras (50 g), which gives 223 kcal, 10.5 g protein, about 6 g fibre, 10.2 g fat and about 492 mg sodium. Per 100 g that is 446 kcal, 21 g protein, 11.9 g fibre, 4.5 g saturated fat and 985 mg sodium. There is no added sugar and no trans fat.
The pack promises more protein and a short list of kitchen ingredients, and the list backs that up: no additives, no palm oil, and peanut flour as the main protein boost. The cost is the salt, which is high for a snack. CleanPlate scores it CA4.

01 Nutrition density: why C
Protein is 21 g per 100 g and fibre is 11.9 g, which is 10.5 g protein and about 6 g fibre in a 50 g serve. The largest protein source is defatted peanut flour, with whole wheat and Bengal gram adding more.
Energy is 446 kcal per 100 g, with 20.4 g fat, so the snack is dense. No vitamins or minerals are declared, so the grade rests on protein and fibre alone.
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 short and plain: whole wheat flour, defatted peanut flour, rice bran oil, Bengal gram, salt, cumin and turmeric. No additives are listed, no hydrogenated fat, and nothing on the pack's front promises more than the list delivers.
Percentages are not printed for any ingredient, so the order of the list is the only guide to how much of each there is.

03 Load risk: why 4
Sodium is the main driver: 985 mg per 100 g, about 492 mg in one 50 g serve. It makes up most of the risk number, which lands on a 4.
Saturated fat is 4.5 g per 100 g, just under the 5 g high line, and energy adds a little. Added sugar is 0 g and trans fat is 0 g, so neither plays a part.
Scored on free sugar, sodium, saturated fat and trans fat, each weighed by how strong the evidence of harm is.

Does Prolicious Protein Khakhra - Chilli Coriander, Methi & Jeera live up to its claims?
The 10 g protein, 5 g fibre and no-palm-oil claims hold: 50 g gives 10.5 g protein and about 6 g fibre. The doubled-protein claim compares with a regular khakhra the pack does not quantify.
- On the packHolds
“10g Protein in 3 Khakhras (50g)”
21 g protein per 100 g gives 10.5 g in a 50 g serve. The pack's 20% protein statement matches the panel.
- On the packHolds
“5g Fiber”
11.9 g fibre per 100 g gives about 6 g in a 50 g serve, a little above the 5 g claimed.
- On the packHolds
“No Palm Oil”
The only added fat in the list is rice bran oil, and no palm oil appears.
- On the packBe careful
“Same Crunch. 2X the Protein.”
The pack says each khakhra has double the protein of a regular one, but gives no figure for the regular khakhra, so the doubling cannot be checked from the label.
- Retail listingBe careful
“Ingredients and flavours”
The retailer page shows wheat flour (atta), low sodium iodised salt and cumin at 1.4%, while the pack shows whole wheat flour and plain salt with no percentages. The nutrition figures are from the Jeera pack, so the Chilli Coriander and Methi flavours may differ.
