Food is a basic necessity in life and cooking is one of the essential chores that takes up a lot of time. Whether you are surviving a hectic work schedule and need to cook intermittently or somebody who loves to cook, everybody needs equipment that would make their life in the kitchen much easier. Whether you cook for yourself or your family or for a party, these devices will help you achieve your goal efficiently, faster and quite often with precision, thanks to technology that aids the potential of your kitchen.
On2Cook
On2Cook has been making waves for being the perfect cooking solution. This fastest cooking device blends different forms of cooking – be it induction, flame or microwave and cooks nutritious food while saving 70% cooking time and 50% energy. Due to the fast cooking method, the appliance is able to retain all water-soluble nutrients and also preserves the colour, texture, taste and flavour of the food. While this device cooks chicken in nearly 7 minutes, your pizza will be ready in 4 minutes. Invented by Sanandan Sudhir, the appliance is apt for both domestic as well as commercial kitchens.
Roti maker
Oh, the saga of the perfectly soft and round roti continues to persist in this generation too. But fret not, there are plenty of roti makers that will help you make this work easier. While the Prestige roti maker needs the user to be there and make individual rotis, it is still a lot of work as one needs to knead the dough, shape it into balls and then finally put it in the device and still keep an eye on it. Rotimatic has come up as the answer for those who want to totally automate the process and want to nothing to do with it. All you have to do is feed the flour into the device and within no time, the device will serve perfectly rolled-out rotis, one after another. This one is great for working couples who want to eat their meal in peace, as well as for big families, where there are many rotis needed in one go.
Dosa maker
Well, who doesn’t love thin, crispy dosas? The ones made at home, somehow don’t have that crisp factor. EVOCHEF has launched a dosa printing machine, or a dosa maker that will make many dosas in one go, all you have to do is feed the batter into the designated compartment. It is great for times when many lunch boxes need to be packed or a South Indian family meal is planned. It is healthy as it uses less oil and definitely hygienic since it is not touched by bare hands. This portable and user-friendly device can make dosas in less than one minute. This easy-to-operate and maintain device can help you make a variety of dosas, as all you need to do is keep varying the fillings, or enjoy your plain dosa.
Air Fryer
We all know how oily, deep-fried food is unhealthy and ends up sitting on our waists. For the health-conscious, bland and boiled food has been the only resort for a long time. The air fryer enables the user to make a variety of fried food items like French fries, deep-fried chicken wings, samosas, frozen savouries and whatever your heart desires, with just a few drops of oil. This device enables you to enjoy your favourite snacks without the guilt of consuming too many calories. The energy-efficient device consumes lesser energy as well. While Philips air fryers are popular, Prestige and Pigeon variants also work well.
Mixer Grinder Juicer
We all have this device in our homes, which is often ignored among our fancy new appliances. But this is the basic necessity in every kitchen without which the cooking process can literally take us back to the stone age where we end up using grinding stones(silbatta) and mortar and pestle (okhli). It has been easing our job of grinding, making pastes, and also making dry masalas for our gravies as well as finely mincing meat or grinding the batter for dosas. A juicer is an added advantage here, as you can then get fresh juice, which is good for the health of the entire family. This appliance is now being manufactured by many companies like Usha, LG, Orient, Philips etc.
