So sad he isn’t making videos anymore. His honesty, integrity and humility is so hard to find. No self promotion. No conning his audience. Only pure passion for cooking. Such a gem of a person. I hope he’s doing well.

Now we realize that how hard work our moms did effortlessly....

You saved my money Isse fast I will make by using hands 🤣🤣

Thanks for saving my money. Genuine review. Everyday in the morning, while making rotis, I think of buying roti maker. Now I should not buy it. I make dough in Bajaj food processor, it works out perfectly.

By far the most honest review on the roti maker.... Lol

The most honest review. At least one is not going to be scammed in the future.

I have been using roti maker since last 1.5 years, struggled alot initially on how to use it correctly, but somehow figured it out. The dough has to be little softer than the dough we use to make roti manually and I use little bit more oil so that I can use less of dry flour to make roti else the roti gets hards, also the roti doesn't gets cook properly on a roti maker so I cook it on a gas burner only

Thank you for being honest with your review. I tried this machine 3 years ago. After several attempts gave up. My results are exactly like yours. The machine is sitting in kitchen cabinet now. Some video suggest trick is in amount of water ( stickiness) and let the dough rest for at least 30 mins. So far my results are discouraging. There is another completely automatic machine Rotimatic. However cost is VERY high $1000 US Dollar!

In Marwari households this “Roti maker” is used as a Khakra maker 😂 and it works like magic 💯

Hahaha lol you pulled my memories back when I was newly married and faced exactly same problem with roti maker ... Finally I dumped it and learned to make chapatti manually which we also call phulka ... Now I have mastered it ... :-D

Make the dough softer. Coat the dough balls in little flour before pressing. They wont slip off. Flip the roti as soon as you press. Then the roti will be soft. Been using one since the last 2 years.

Moral : Roti maker is not a robot, it’s all about man's skill. 😂 Same experience here 😑 Traditional roti making process is far better than this. Thanks for honest review 🙏

I have started from roti maker and it was perfect for me. Now I can do by hand easily. Tip: Make your dough rest to develop enough gluten. It will become much softer and coat some dry flour before putting in to roti maker. That will create enough surface resistance on hot plate to avoid slipping away. I used roti maker for 2yrs without any issue. (With all puffed ones in result) Yes you said right, It needs skills. I would say if you kneed perfect dough it won't be that difficult. For someone new, it will take 1 to 2 weeks to adjust with roti maker technique. Once you learn it will be "maska" (easy) to make dozens of rotis. Liked your way of explaining though!

All these scientists working day and nights for centuries still can't invent a "working" roti maker -_-

I am using it for few years. To make it pop as in ads you have to do the following: 1. Make the dough as soft as you can. There is nothing like too soft. 2. Make the atta balls small. I use 35g to 40g per ball. 3. Make the atta ball flat by pressing in your palms or pressing by fingers. That will stop it from slipping out as shown in the video. 4. Cover both sides of the flatten ball with dry atta before using in the roti maker. 5. Give one good press to make the roti. As the roti maker has hot plates in both sides you have to do it in one go. Not like in the video, where it was attempted many times to make it thinner. 6. Cook one side like is a tawa keeping the roti maker top plate open. Don't overcook. Just little popping will do. 7. Turn and cook the other side like before. Again don't overcook. 8. Turn one more time. Now close the top pan of the roti maker. Your roti will pop up fully and slide out! 👍 9. Last but not least always use the rotimaker at highest temperature. Actually ones having no temperature control are better. Hope this helps

I’ve used my Roti maker for everything but making a roti. Khakra, Dose, Paranthas, Toast Sandwiches, and have used it as a hot plate to cook food as well when I ran out of gas! My Roti maker was a saviour in lockdown for the above reasons! 😬

Moral of the story:- knead dough with hands Like if u agree😅

haha I changed my mind about buying this lol. Thanks for the honest review.

One honest review on the dough and the roti makers. Thanks for helping me make my decision on these!

Like your suggestion for Making Roti with Roti Maker.I have seen Some Foodie groups are doing this business in Gated Community appartments.they are changing for One Roti,12.₹ but for Senior citizens it's good 😊 helping them.Save time thanks to you for sharing this video 👌👍🙏

Yesterday i got this roti maker, and in 1st try my roti was looking same as yours, then i made a mire softer Atta with alot more water in it, and with that they turned out perfectly

I bought a manual iron puri maker for about Rs.800. One puri is ready in 2 presses. Found it convenient to sit on the floor in the living room under the fan and ready all of them, before starting to fry them. Legs ache less. Wish somebody would come up with a mini version of Commercial roti makers for households.

We used to have one... I don't know name of company but, after heating it for solid 15-20 min. It used to work good. No slipping or half cooked rotis ❤️ only problem was the size

Not only are you a very good cooking teacher but also honest. Thanks for such a excellent review

For making rotis with roti maker, you need to have very soft dough. Recommended to use 1.25 portion of water for 2 portions of aata. Then roti gets thin and flat when you press first time itself. Also you need to let roti a bit golden from both the sides approx 45 seconds to 1 minute each before you press it for puffing. I use roti maker occasionally and result is good.

Thank you soooooo much for ur advice. Ur a real honest person. I wish what ever u do it may success.

Thanx a lot... I wanted to buy one... Now I got to get the result... Thank God... For the wonderful hands he has blessed us with....

Thanks! I wish I saw this review before taking a roti maker to Canada! I was doing pissed as it was f** heavy and made disastrious rotis like these! Thanks for the honest review and helping others! You are best in cooking and otherwise!

Add lil bit more water n make more softer dough, take small portion of dough and flatten the dough on hands and dip both sides in flour and then place the dough in roti maker then it ll work

2 minutes 500 views power of cooking shooking

My husband has been making perfect rotis on his roti maker for the last 3 years! I make them too! It's easy and fast, 10 rotis take about 15 minutes after dough is made and rested for 10 minutes. Rotis made correctly in Roti maker will stay soft and delicious even next morning when kept in a decent casserole. We have never used a dough maker so cannot comment on that!😊

Tip for making good rotis using this machine: knead loose aata, u will get thin rotis....Crisp like tandoori roti. I am using it frequently for the past 2 years

I have been using Rotimaker for a few years. I find it really helpful especially for working women. The dough needs to be soft. I use the dough maker and it is really helpful too. What is more helpful is that you can make varieties of stuffed Parathas. It is easier than the conventional method. Also when you have guests at home you can roll out puri’s faster and then fry them in oil

I found it better to use the roti maker, after kneading the dough separately, as you said, with more moisture. Besides, with use, I notice that the roti maker surface got rougher and then it stopped slipping at the initial moment. Slipping happens when it is too hot. For dough composition, I use the following and it works: 1. 550 g dough 2. 310 ml water 3. 1 tablespoon oil 4. 1.5 teaspoon salt (or as you want) It is important to store the kneaded dough under a wet cloth for 15-20 mins, and then make balls that should also stand for 5-10 mins. I've used Bajaj Vacco (which I am going to discard after 3 years of use). If you want the roti to come out in a swollen state, the following works for me. 1. After 5 minutes of warming, place the ball at the back as shown in the video. 2. After pressing and flattening, keep it open for 10-15 s and then turn the roti over. You may want to smear some oil with a spoon's bulging end during these 10-15 s. 3. Leave the roti in this turned state for 40-50 s. During this time again, you might want to smear oil with the bulging part of a spoon. 4. Now turn the roti, and gently close the upper lid. If all goes well, the roti will swell and come out as you often see in the ads.

Most mothers did a lot harder work raising a family and keeping it together. Of those, professional women, like my Mother, worked both inside and outside the home. Many mothers completed their education on a part-time basis while shouldering all other household responsibilities. Of these, meal prepatation, though time-consuming, was the least demanding task. Making Rotis is a no-brainer in comparison!

I was looking for a roti maker to buy and saw your video,good I didn't waste my money...am sure I won't get rotis cause I don't have patience..

Both these products are so disappointing. I find the traditional method the best. Thank you for reviewing and sharing. 😊

I do believe roti making is not so tough with practice . But people who dont have time or the skills to make rotis, should give the Roti maker a chance. With little practise and following good tips like making really really soft atta, and not turning the chapati too often etc, each of the rotis will turn out fluffy. Love your polite attitude and your cooking is really good. But please don't give incomplete information on gadgets. This art of roti making is excelled with patience, practice and try and error😊

You can't replace chef in the house. Everything in cooking is ART!

Even my street dog will ignore this kind of roti 😂😂. Thanks for the honest review!

I was on amazon app searching for roti maker..ao i thought to see the review first.you changed my mind..thanks for the honest review chef..i am never going to buy this roti maker and ata maker..

Very genuine review....this is very hard to see where a person shows both positive and negative features

Thank you for this video I have been nagging my husband to get one of these machines, but your video saved me money it is not worth the cost! I watched another video and the person also had the same problem that the ball slides out so he flattened the dough ball a bit more and also wet it on the bottom ! I already make all kinds of flat breads by hand just fine !! I was thinking this machine has some magic 🤣🤣! I love your channel thank you !

Ive been using it for years It is a life safer for hostlers It puffs 😈 But remains uncooked between two layers

We need people like you to try out stuff and make customers' lives easy.

Thank you for your honesty,it's refreshing having somebody give the facts straight out.

The trick to making roti using roti maker is to make sure the dough is extra soft by adding more water. If you use same consistency of water that you use for regular handmade rotis then the rotis will be hard and cracks will be formed when you press them on the roti maker

youtube actually need the person like u. who give us genuine review. Go ahead all the best for ur future success.

Thank you so much. You are the first person giving such an honest review of products

8:00 THE REASON WHY HE IS A LIVING LEGEND....... NO SELF PROMOTION HE KNOWS THAT HIS HONEST EFFORTS ARE ENOUGH

Hi br I have Rheumatoid arthritis my hands re very painful so I couldn't make roti please can u suggest any gud roti maker

I just purchased a roti maker was so excited but she same thing was happening to me. Don’t want to be disappointed with the purchase. Going to keep trying

Thank you so much for sharing this recipe demo because I have a roti maker machine and I tried many times but the result is not roti....it is khakhra...

Moral of the story: No machine can replace man 😊

You have given the correct review ,these gadjets are really worth less ,tried both but useless as the roti comes out rubbery ,but tried making panipuris they come out very good &quick ,just got to press the Puri doughballs 5 at a time &fry these immediately ,tried &happy too

I returned within a month...and again got tempted bought another one...had to sell it in OLX...again tempted so watching ur video..Thank you so much

I have been using prestige roti maker for 2 months now. You just need really soft dough and dust it lightly with flour after making the balls it doesn’t slip. Pressing one time is enough and turn the roti with a gap of 25-30 seconds not so quickly. It come out perfectly.

U made many mistakes 1: ball was not soft enough in start 2: u didn’t flattend the ball thats why i kept sliding 3: u were putting it on very edge. It should b slightly away fron centre 3: u kept turing roti which is not good. U have to gice one side enough time to cook and then flip.

Thank you sir for the review with live demo… i am not going to think any more about roti or atta maker… manual process is 1000 times better from these gadgets… Thanks a lot 🙏🏻

Wow.. The most honest review on internet.. Thank u so much for the honest review. It saved my money from being wasted. God bless u

The key to making a thin, soft and fully puffed roti in a roti maker is kneading the dough a little sticky and then putting it in the roti maker. This is a tested and proven method.

Absolute honest review. I like all your videos because they are simple to follow and most of the ingredients you use are easy to buy.

Lol!!! Why I am laughing so hard here watching this video … bravo chef for the honest review 😂😂

Learn from any skilled person on KZfaq Roti maker makes perfect roti better than made by hand. I'm using rotimaker from 5 yrs and fully satisfied

Actually it's looks very FUN,🤪🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Great job!! I bought 4 roti makers. All different brands. and tried them all for a week. Terrible . Wish you give more of your verdicts like these. Thank you. Can you please show how to make KHAKRAS ??

My daughter is a big fan of yours. She is 11 and started cooking by fallowing your videos.

WHILE KNEADING AATA, WE DONT ADD OIL, I THINK THAT IS WHY ,CHAPATTI IS NOT PUFFING UP

As a outsider Student only problem with me is to make dough, sometimes it is hard and sometimes it is too soft. but i am good to cook A complete puffy roti always if it was round🤣🤣 we have to appreciate our mothers effort at kitchen for making thin puffy 8inch rotis even in summer time ❤❤❤

Thank you so much for genuine review

Kitna honest or pyara bnda h ye bhai tum bahoot jyada successful hoge life me

I thought to buy this roti maker for my mom but after ur reviews, I think it’s much easier with hand than machine

Seemingly honest review but funny at the same time 😂😂

Thank you bhaiyaa I have a lot of confusion in using this You have cleared all the doubt

Thank you for saving my money as I was about to buy.

I have bought roti maker13years ago after I get married to make my work easy in summers but I have used it only twice the very day I purchased it…but believe me it was utter waste of my money…I make rotis much faster with my hand and the quality of roti was such that I too didn’t want to eat it…

I really hope, one day, someone really invent a marvellous roti maker. Life wil be beautiful.

I have been using the Roti Maker since many months now. The dough needs to be SLIGHTLY WET in consistentcy for the roti to come out well and puff up well. Regular dough will not work at all.

I'll stick with the cast iron manual one and cook on my stovetop, thank you. Great review on two fails.

Sir I purchased roti maker 10 yrs back n put it aside.as problems naratted by u r continuing.just they rpulkad. Not roties.before puting th we have to flatten.not laddus.now again I am using.simply pressing rotors outside n frying them on rotimaker.applying oil on two sides, not pressing from upside, turning two sides number of times.i got soft n fully cooked tasty rotors.tq. so no need to throw it out or put aside.

With a little experience and soft dough rested for at least 15 minutes and 3" flattened dough, this 1st model of prestige roti maker makes every roti puffed perfectly. Makes 7" rotis perfectly.

I have arthritis in my hands on a very low level. So I can't knead for too long. I use my food processor kneader to get it all together and then i only need to knead with hand for 2-3 mins. The manual kneader looks more messy and tiresome

Thank you for the prompt review. Indeed I was searching for one. Now backed off.

Thank you so much sir main lene wali thi but nai lena hai main khud bana lungi isse acha mere papa k liye mujhe chaiye tha 🙏🏻😊aap jaise log hai tabhi insaniyat pe bharosa hai sir

This video of urs has made me ur fan. Thank you for the genuine review.

Awesome review bro. I'll never buy these products 🤣🤣🤣🤣

That's a very very true and honest review. Many thanks for it. Otherwise all other videos are fake in which they're showing that u get a perfect roti in the roti maker, it's not true at all.

I just dropped the idea to purchase it after your useful video.... thank you so much sir

Yes would like to see more reviews as your reviews r honest

U don't know to use it. Dough should be very soft and before u place the atta balls in the machine deep in dry atta and then press the machine it won't slip and easily it 'll be flattened

Roti maker se jyada AAP ki explain krne ki mehnat acchi hai . Your cooking videos r awesome

Great review, really helpful. Looks like there's no shortcut, 25/30 years of rolling rotis like our mothers, it's the only way to do it! 😆

Nothing beats KitchenAid stand mixer. One machine does everything.💯

Machines are not worthy. I think we can really do well with our hands. Thank you for this video.

Thank u for saving my money by giving this review 🙏🙏🙏

It works pretty good actually. Use some oil also while preparing the dough. Also, press the roti maker flap really fast to prevent it from slipping out. However, it's best to learn how to make roti the traditional way.

Aren't we supposed to dust the small dough with some atta or maida???? I dust them and the result is very good......

Roti maker is electrical one or its has some rechargeable battery/simple battery operated fitted to it??

Final result- manual is better. Appreciate my Mom who did all these with out complaining. Salute the Mom. 🙏
