Customer Review: A Must have in the kitchen of a working indian mom who cooks roti/chapaati(indian flat bread) every day
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been thinking to buy this product since last year but seeing the price tag of more than 200 $ I was a bit reluctant to buy it. I am a full time working mom of a little preschooler and I love to cook at least one fresh indian/desi meal in a day.
I always had cooking help when I was staying in new york. This fall I moved into a new home in jersey from where my commute is very long that leaves me with a very little free time in evening. I make roti/chapati(indian flat bread) every evening for which kneading dough used to be a time consuming challenging job.
after reading many good reviews about kitchen aid stand mixers,I decided to buy kitchenaid artisan series 5 qt. mixer finally this thanksgiving. my husband ordered it through amazon on black friday and it was delivered to me the next week. I thought it may require some reading to assemble and start using this mixer, so I waited till weekend to start using it.
over the weekend I opend the box and voila , i just needed to take the mixer out and put it on countertop, attach dough hook to it , clean bowl with water and it was all ready to knead first batch of atta(dough). it was less than 5 minutes task.
I read instructions to knead dough in mixer. (just 5-8 lines to read) and put 2 cups of whole wheat flour for roti. added some salt and about 1-1/2 cup water started the machine on speed level 2(as suggested in manual). within 5 minutes it was done with kneading dough. I added little bit more water watching the dough softness in between. I was absolutely amazed at the way this task was over. no flour mess to clean and the rotis came out really nicely with dough.
This machine works wonder in kneading dough and I am so happy with its performance that I would recommend to every mom who loves to cook fresh rotis but also want to enjoy family time as much as possible.
it costs more than 200 $ but believe me its worth it. its the dollars well spent. this machine sits on my countertop permanently and I use it almost every evening for kneading dough.
Now I list the pros of machine as cons I am yet to find -
1. makes perfect dough
2. very quiet.
3. doesn't require babysitting.
once you know the exact measure of ingredients and time to make it. you can leave it working and continue to work on other things. so it supports multitasking that is a must for moms.
4. Cleaning is as easy as 1-2-3. manual suggests that bowl and hook is dishwasher safe. but I clean it immdiately in sink as there is almost no dough left on the bowl or hook. just clean with some soap and running water and wipe it.
5. very quiet. even my kitchen vent fan is more noisy.
6. no vibrations at all. its very heavy machine and it stays at same place when it is on.
I am very happy with the mixer and I think this was the best thanksgiving purchase that we made till now.
