Curry powder

Curry powder is a blend of dried, ground spices used to season food. The figures here describe retail samples. It provides carbohydrate, fat and protein, as well as minerals including iron and calcium. Per 100g, it contains 26g of carbohydrate, 11g of fat, 58mg of iron and 1.1g of salt.

Iron is needed to make haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen around the body. Curry powder is usually used in small quantities, so the amounts of nutrients supplied in a meal will be much lower than these values. Its salt content may be relevant for people monitoring their salt intake. Full nutrient figures are in the tables below.
