    100 Calories for 100 Grams of pasta.. Fried?

    Ok so I bought this pasta because I was tought that 100 grams equaled 100 calories but I was fooled when I realized that 100 grams COOKED equaled 100 calories.



    Anyway my question...

    This pasta is already cooked a bit (I think) so that means I can probably throw them in a wok pan for some stir fry action, But how much calories is 100 grams stir fried? (because no water absored would mean the same weight but more pasta)

    It says on the label that 125 uncooked = 330 cooked.

    Simple math should tell the rest of the story.

    It also says on the label ''Cooked as per instruction'' which is in boiling water, because water soaks up in the pasta the weight differs after cooking.

    Now I'm going to fry it, not boil it not cooking as instructed so the calorie content will be different..

    It doesn't say how much the uncooked (dry) calories is?

    You know that 100g uncooked = 330g cooked. You also know that 100g cooked = 100 kcal.

    No offense but you're 26 and this is extremely basic math.
