Chilli powder

Chilli powder is a dried, ground spice made from chilli peppers; some products also contain other spices and salt. The figures here describe chilli powder using data from literature sources. Per 100g, it provides 35g of fibre, 14g of fat, 14g of protein and 10g of salt.

Fibre supports normal bowel function, while protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Chilli powder is generally used in small amounts, so its contribution depends on the quantity added. Salt content varies between products, which is worth noting for people watching their salt intake.
