Tomatoes, standard, fried in corn oil

These figures describe standard tomatoes fried in corn oil, rather than raw tomatoes. They provide fat from the cooking oil, carbohydrate and some fibre, as well as vitamin C and potassium. Per 100g, they contain 371 kJ of energy, 7.7g of fat, 4.5g of carbohydrate and 23mg of vitamin C.

Vitamin C supports normal collagen formation and helps the body absorb iron from plant foods. Potassium contributes to normal nerve and muscle function. Frying adds fat and energy, so the amount of oil used is relevant when considering energy intake. Added salt can also change the salt content of the finished dish.
