The calories and nutrition in indian foods like Roti / Naan / chapati / Parathas depend on the way the foods are cooked. Indian parathas are very high in calories/energy (high calories from fat) as these are fried in ghee or butter. Tandoori roti is baked in tandoor so these are supposed to be low in calorie. But they are often coated with ghee or butter to improve their taste and that makes them high calorie, high fat food.
