Also known as: भुना चना
Roasted chana is high in potassium (718 mg/100g) and phosphorus (252 mg/100g) per 100g, but a typical 2-tbsp snack portion (20g) delivers ~144 mg potassium and ~50 mg phosphorus — acceptable in moderation for early CKD. For stages 4-5 and dialysis, limit portions and count minerals. It's a better snack than namkeen (low sodium) but not mineral-free.
Values are approximate, based on USDA FoodData Central and ICMR-NIN Indian Food Composition Tables. Actual values vary by variety, ripeness, serving size, and cooking method. The database rating is a general reference, not an individualized diet recommendation.
2 tbsp (20g) — always count this toward your daily potassium, phosphorus, and (on dialysis) fluid budget.
