Pav bhaji

One serving of Pav bhaji — 1 plate (bhaji + 2 pav, butter) — comes to 401 kcal, 9.5 g protein, 58.6 g carbs and 14.3 g fat. Scaled to 100 g it works out to 134 kcal and 3.2 g protein, which makes it not a meaningful protein source on its own for a street food item. That single serving is about 26.7% of a 1,500 kcal day and 20.1% of a 2,000 kcal day, so it's more of a filler than a target-hitter on protein without much extra planning.

Walking off Pav bhaji takes roughly 10,025 steps, using the rough approximation of 0.04 kcal burned per step (a population-average estimate for a moderate walking pace, not a personalised number). At ₹80 a serving it costs about ₹168.4 for every 20 g of protein it delivers, which is a mid-to-high price for protein compared with dal, eggs or soya chunks. It fits a vegetarian or eggetarian or non-vegetarian diet. It works at the evening snack slot and dinner.

If you want variety without changing the macros much, the closest swaps in the street food category are Aloo tikki chaat, Bread pakora (aloo), Chole bhature, Dabeli — each keeps a similar role on the plate while shifting the exact protein-to-carb balance a little.
