We bought air fryers to reduce oil, right?
We wanted a way to turn our guilt-laden fried foods into “healthy” baked versions. Sounds like a win—less oil, fewer calories, no guilt. Until…
Because hey, “no oil,” and also, that ₹20,000 air fryer isn’t going to justify itself unless you use it daily. So now you’re googling baked kachori recipe, air-fried potato wedges, guilt-free pakoras…
And just like that, your “healthier choice” has quietly become a higher-portion, higher-carb, snack habit disguised as wellness.
Not as much as you think.
A well-fried samosa absorbs around 8g of oil.
That’s less than the oil you probably pour into your everyday sabzi or dal. But we don’t track that. Why? Because it’s not shaped like a triangle and wrapped in guilt.
So, the real problem isn’t the oil. It’s the lack of awareness, portion creep, and a misplaced belief that “baked = healthy.”
At Bon Happetee, we love samosas. We also love accurate nutrition data of Indian foods, because guesswork isn't a health strategy.
Our Indian food nutrition database shows you how much oil, fat, carbs, and calories are actually going into your meals—homemade or store-bought.
That baked samosa? Still high on carbs.
That air-fried kachori? Maybe low on oil, but often high on everything else.
Here’s a wild idea:
Fry it well. Eat one. Enjoy it.
Because the real fix is portion control, not over-processing traditional recipes into cardboard.
You don’t need more gadgets.
You need better data.
You need to know what you’re eating—and eat it mindfully.
Track it. Balance it. Eat what you love—wisely.
