Long ago I received one as a prize in Vikadan's JOLLY DAY contests! It never worked well for me! :cry3: Only sutta 'appalam' like chappathis in spite of trying a variety of dough-kneading techniques & tips! Never got automatically puffing chappathis like in the ads or got by my sister & sister-in-law who had bought it in the shop!
oh... thanks Shanthy... I will look out for it in Mustafa... BTW, which brand is it that U have?...& what is thadai?... how to make it using chapathi maker???!!!...Does the chapathi stay soft even after it becomes cold or is it soft only when hot?...
PP mam, did ur sis or SIL try using ur chapathi maker?... didn't it work for them too?... which brand do you have & which brand do ur sis & SIL have?...
My sil tried it as also my dil. No use. I don't remember the brand. I suppose there is only one popular one. I have a doubt that the sponsors get defective pieces & show off giving out costly prizes!!!
'Chefmaster' is the brand name, I think. Not sure!
Oh... okay... Thanks PP mam... will try looking out for chefmaster brand...:)Quote:

As soon as you make the chapthis always put it in a plate and cover it with a wet tea towel to keep them soft. You can pile up the chapthis and cover it.
Recipe for Thaddai
Roasted rice flour 2 cups, Poddu kadalai flour ½ cup, Urid flour 1/4 cup, salt, chilli powder to taste, Ghee 1t sp optional.
Mix all the ingredients and make stiff dough with water. Make small balls and use the hot chapathi maker to press like a small disk. If you press lightly you get a thick thaddai and press harder to get thin ones. Take it off as soon as you pressed. Leave the chapathi maker on until the whole batch is finished. This will leave a semi dried thaddai. Make them all and fry them in hot oil. Since it is already half cooked it doesn’t take too much oil.
Thanks,Shanthy... will lookout for chefmaster...:)
Hi,
what is the diff between a convectional oven tht has turbo fan & one that doesn't have turbo fan?... any ideas???!!!...
Hi Dev,
I don´t know how you cook in S´pore hot plate or gas fire. Normally in Germany if you have an oven with Turbofan it is used to circulate hotair in the oven and the food can be
cooked faser and crispier. The hot air oven what I have van also grill.
I hope it is ok.
Thanks Sivank... I'm looking for a portable oven & not a built-in oven... :)
