Hi Poonan, tks, tks a lot for the recipe. Like mentioned I tried yr way making chapati, believe me it came out really soft for the first in 5yrs almost give up till yr video not advise, am Indian but not from India,seen a lot of different ways and other videos, not effective, till yours. It's really wonderful of you to show the real way of doing recipes the most is the tips which you give. Now even my friends are in your videos. Please keep posting for more interesting recipes.
I just had to come back to thank you ! I had broken the dough blade of my India bought food processor and was desperately looking for options . However, at this time , I didn't want to buy anything till I had more space in my kitchen. This video saved me from it! Subscribing!!
This is the most informative video I have seen on youtube. You not only show how to make the dough but you also give so many tips on how and why you do it. I just bought a cuisinart 13 cup food processor and was looking for ways to cut down my dinner prep time. Thank you very much. I also subscribed to your channel so I can learn more from you.
Thank you very much for the appreciation, and the subscription. It means a lot to me. Looking forward to your feedback on other videos as well. Thanks!
Since you are looking to cut down dinner prep time, you might find these videos useful for meal preparation ua-cam.com/video/xcwpefoPmSs/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/I1Dp3_dsG6g/v-deo.html These prep videos are mainly for Indian cooking, however you could use these ideas to suit any other cuisine's needs as well
Great! I am happy to know that the video is useful for you! Do check out the video on how to make roti. I am sure you will come to know of some new pointers. Here's the link ua-cam.com/video/X_6n1PQcL90/v-deo.html
That's a Cuisinart. Looks like one of the prep series. Prep 11 plus. Great model. Smaller footprint than the classic swri s but with same induction motors as the classics and old ones. In my opinion their new elemental series sucks. Don't have the quiet induction motors. The new elite series do but they are at a much higher price point. I separate cuisinart into 3 generations Gen 1: The originals which are still made with the square base. Good high power induction motors. Dlc-7 (now called custom 14, 14 cup), dlc-8 (pro custom 11 now 11 cup), and dlc-10 (called pro classic now 7 cup). Best thing is all the older dlc-8 discs fit the dlc-10/dlc-8 models (7 and 11) including some gen 2 models up next. Gen 2: these are the prep series. Prep 9 (I think discontinued), prep 11 plus (11 cup same discs as the gen 1 , 7 and 11 cup models) and prep 7 (discontinued). Gen 3 are the new elite and elemental processors. The elemental use loud crappy motors and don't accept any if the gen1 or gen 2 discs and use different stuff that's mostly plastic. The elite have the nice motors but also use different disc/cutter systems that again I don't feel are anywhere near the older styles. There's a reason that the old gen1 styles lasted for 30 years. The gen 2 seem great too (I have prep 11 plus) and these ones come with the 10 year motor warranty which says a lot about the company's belief on quality. The gen 1 models have 5 year motor warranty but I believe are same motors. Gen 3 I have no idea the warranty but if you held the cutting discs from the gen1/gen2 then felt the new elemental/elite cutting system you'd know what I mean
Can we use this processor for dosa, idle ,vada, batter instead of getting grinder from India and also what you use for coconut chutney , or grinding spices where we don’t add any water. Thank You
Yes, you can use this processor for all other batters as well. I do it all the time. This makes a paste which is slightly more coarse than what we get from the wet grinder, but it does a pretty decent job. I happen to also have a heavy duty blender (by blendtec, I used it in my green smoothie video) but I still prefer the food processor!! For coconut chutney again, the food processor. For grinding dry spices, I use my mortar and pestle and a small chopping jar. It doesn't do a great job, but good enough. I have to buy one for the dry spices...it's on my shopping list!
not that i didnt know kneeding flour dough in food processor. but to get reviews for some products i went thru a few videos. and only in urs i found it all coming together as one lump!!
Hi, please let me know if dry coconut can be shredded using the shredding blade in food processor, I don't want to take risk with my new food processor.....
Hi, did you use chopper blade to prepare dough.? I am having bosch mcm3200w model with powerful motor? Can I also prepare dough in it? Thanks in advance for your response ;)
Yes, I do use a chopper blade for making the dough. Yes, you could definitely prepare the dough in your food processor. As per my understanding, your model has a feature of variable speeds. You just might have to play around with the speed options till you get the best results. If I were in your place, I will aerate the flour at a low speed, and then increase the speed once I start adding the water. I will refrain from using very high speed. This would be just my way of experimenting to see what speed works best. Probably the gadget's manual might have some info on this. Will love to know your feedback whenever you use this method. Best wishes
Hi...this particular brand may or may not be available in Mumbai. I am in the US, and I got it from here. You can get many other brands of food processors in Mumbai
Hi! Great video, I loved the details! Thing is, am quite a health nut, so was wondering, is the oil absolutely necessary? I was doing some research and found that when done by hand people just used the flour and water... so is the oil to simply grease the tumbler in order to ensure that the dough doesn't stick to it? Or is there something else to it? Am just trying to figure if one can still have great phulkas without the oil. Thanks again for the video :)
Thanks for the appreciation! You got it absolutely right. The oil is only to grease the bowl, else the flour tends to stick to the walls and doesn't come together as easily as shown in the video. I appreciate your choice for keeping it healthy, but remember this amount of dough will be used for anywhere between 12-14 rotis. This means that your intake of oil is actually a fraction of the total amount used (depending on the number of rotis you eat in a meal) You definitely can enjoy great phulkas without oil, especially when they are made fresh. When I'm kneading dough with hands I do it without oil. You might want to check out the video for the same..here' the link ua-cam.com/video/QHrVt5YkLAI/v-deo.html
Cuisinart prep 11 plus (dlc-2011chby) The extra Y now is because of the new metal blade. The one in video is old style with rivets that was recalled for possible failure. The new one doesn't have rivets and because of how it's made now also makes the dough blade useless. If the poster of this video contacts them they should be able to get a new blade from them free of charge.
@@2010stoof Trying to decide on 7cup for 1 loaf of wheat bread. looks like I need the 11 cup processor...Also great info on the new blade indicator. :)
@@rosemarywiyda2315 just get the 11. Same discs as the 7 but larger bowl. Can always make 1 loaf in an 11. Macy's has the pro custom 11 legacy model on sale alot. Can buy online and have shipped to your home. It's what I buy for wedding presents. I prefer the legacy models or the prep series. The ones after use cheaper motors and less well built accessories. The legacy models are the ones they have made for 50 years and built to last.
Poonam, did you use the normal blade? I don't have a dough blade and was under the impression you can't make dough with these steel blades. But this looks great! I have a Ninja, so I'll give this a shot tonight!
+Poonam's Kitchen Hey Poonam, I tried it with my Ninja. This is the one I have: www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Ninja-QB1000-Master-Prep-Pro-Food-and-Drink-Mixer/8397521/product.html. It only comes with one set of the dual vertical blades which are great by the way. It only has one setting for the speed. I tried with one cup of flour and some random amount of water (really should've measured it out first I guess) but it worked really well and gave a really nice smooth dough - better than when I hand-knead it!! :) So it's TRUE! You CAN knead dough in a food processor without a dough blade - wohoo!! Also I did try running it for like 2 seconds before without the water. I think that might help to make the flour more fine, i.e. smoother dough, but the mixer's so fast I didn't want to go for too long!
+JS WoW! That's an amazing discovery! You can knead dough in a mixer too! Thank you so much for sharing your experience. Love you loads. At times there are so many enquiries as to which other gadgets can be used to knead dough, and I am always restricted by only the gadgets that I have used. Now I can share your experience. Would it be okay with you if I quote your message in any such enquiry?? Do share your thoughts. Just to let you know for your use, a small chopping jar also kneads a small quantity of dough pretty well. Just tried it recently. Will be sharing it on my fb page soon.
+JS Just checked your Ninja. There is a small chopping jar with your gadget too..that's the kind I was referring to in my last comment. I was able to knead a cup of flour very easily in that jar too..I have one from Panasonic.
+Poonam's Kitchen That's great! This is definitely very useful, because up until now I kept thinking I needed a dough blade. But no more!!! YAY! You may definitely quote me :)
Tejashree, please check out the description box of the video. I have explained the thawing process in detail. Please feel free to ask if you have any questions. Thanks for checking out the video. Stay connected!
Thanks a ton! I'm glad you liked it! Kneading does not affect the sharpness of the blade...not even slightly significant change has been noticed in all these years!
I just found this, I wasn't if my food processor could do this but oiling first helped. My first attempt years ago i added too much water so i was making by hand rarely.
By using the food processor, we cut down the kneading time by a lot. Only 10-15 seconds of kneading by hand is required at the end, to bring all the dough together and to give the dough a smooth finish. Hope this helps. Do watch the video for more clarity.
In the video I am using Cuisinart food processor 11 cup. I have always used the same brand for the last 10 years.. While I was in India, I used Inalsa for 15 years. i won't really be able to comment on any other brand as I have not personally experienced them
I use the Breville 16 cup sous chef. Expensive but worth every bit of the money. 25 years warranty on the motor. www.amazon.com/Breville-BFP800XL-Sous-Chef-Processor/dp/B005I6ZKCE/ref=sr_1_2?hvadid=176955312855&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9009231&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t3&hvqmt=e&hvrand=10023311697862268857&hvtargid=kwd-27423630968&hydadcr=13934_9624574&keywords=breville+sous+chef&qid=1571770029&sr=8-2
The best chapati dough recipe using a food processor. If you are still reading the comments, I would like to know if using the 7 cups model of the same brand would work, say half the size of recipe since you are using the chopping blade and the "ON" button, not the dough button.
Thanks a ton for the appreciation! Yes, the smaller model would also work. In fact, I have tried this with very small blending jars as well wherein you add all the water in the beginning, and of course that is just for little quantity of dough. My best guess is that it would work with all brands, there just may be a little play required once or twice and kneading dough would be perfected.
Thanks. In my experience the metal blade does a better job, that's why I prefer to use metal one. Do check out this article that supports my experience www.americastestkitchen.com/guides/how-to-use-a-food-processor/how-to-knead-dough-with-your-food-processor If you check online, you will find many articles to support my choice. Happy kneading!
my food processor does not have an opening like this to constantly pour water , I just put water along with dough and run the machine , I stop and add more water if needed
+chamkila7 Great!! I'm glad you liked it. Please subscribe to Poonam's Kitchen. There are many videos with useful tips. I also keep posting new videos.
Tanna, I have taken 2 cups of whole wheat wheat flour in each batch that goes in the food processor. The brand that I use needs 210 ml of water (that is more than 3/4 cup but less than 1 cup). All measuring cups have graduations for ml (milliliter) as well. The brand of flour that you use may need a little more/same or less than 210 ml. You will find the exact amount of water needed for your flour once you knead it 2-3 times. I prefer not to add any salt or extra oil as I feel that it doesn't make much of a difference to the dough. It's a personal choice.
Food processor in video is by Cuisinart. I also use food processor by Kitchen aid, that too gives perfect results. Any food processor will make perfect dough, one just needs to get right proportion of flour and water.
Riddhi 1 cup water is 240 ml ( saying 210 ml exactly in cups will be hard. It is more than 3/4 cup but less than 1 cup)....flour is 2 cup..hope this helps. Thanks for checking out the video.
I have started using the food processor too for making chapathi dough. Had a question, i saw that you did not use the dough button, while i always do that. So wanted to check if we need to use the dough button at all.
+Jayanthi Sridhar You noticed correct. Initially when I tried making dough with the dough blade, I used to switch on both the buttons. The 'ON' and dough....but then I realized that the chopping blade gives better results, so started doing only the "ON' button..... No dough blade and no dough switch.
How is that quicker and less hassle than just mixing it all together in a bowl? With the food processor machine you have to clean it and it doesn’t even knead it
my rotis always turns hard after cooking. just when thinking to give up making rotis, I saw yr video, will try our method for a last time before I totally giveup making chapattis. tks
+Koulu Koti hEY PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP MAKING ROTIS. There is nothing that cannot be achieved with practice. Do try this method of kneading for a soft dough. Also, there is a chance that you are making rotis at high heat. Check out my roti making video. That is also going to be useful. Here is the link to the roti making video ua-cam.com/video/X_6n1PQcL90/v-deo.html
Oh tks Poonam for yr suggestion, yes indeed I use to cook rotis on high heat for just couple of mins, now I think it's wrong way till seeing your method.will try today and get back to you
Whole wheat flour 2 cups ( touches 500 ml mark in the measuring cup) Water 210 ml ( quantity of water may vary a little bit with the brand of flour used) Oil for greasing bowl and the blade ( as required)
If you haven't already you should contact Cuisinart for the new blade style. Should be free The rivet blade like you have here in video was recalled for possible safety issue of blade breaking and possibly getting metal into food.
That's a Cuisinart. Looks like one of the prep series. Prep 11 plus. Great model. Smaller footprint than the classic swri s but with same induction motors as the classics and old ones. In my opinion their new elemental series sucks. Don't have the quiet induction motors. The new elite series do but they are at a much higher price point. I separate cuisinart into 3 generations Here's some history and explanation about cuisinart good processors: Gen 1: The originals which are still made with the square base. Good high power induction motors. Dlc-7 (now called custom 14, 14 cup), dlc-8 (pro custom 11 now 11 cup), and dlc-10 (called pro classic now 7 cup).

This is complete recipe as I make dough. This is a tried and tested method over decades. As I shared in the video you have to adjust water quantity as per your brand/quality of flour. If it was a flop once, take the learnings of that attempt and use in the second attempt. By the way, why do you need to add salt to dough??
I totally understand. This is an alternate method for those people who cannot knead by hand due to medical reasons, mostly arthritis patients. Then there are people who find it messy to knead by hand

thank you dear for your quick response... I am happy n I am going to try this out...
You are welcome! Do share your feedback whenever you try this.
Poonam's Kitchen for sure I will...love from kerala
Do you add in any Yeast to the Dough in the processor also.?
I do not add any yeast. This dough is for unleavened flatbreads
I just found this, I wasn't if my food processor could do this but oiling first helped. My first attempt years ago i added too much water so i was making by hand rarely.
Hi Poonan, thank you for the recipe. What kind of food processor do you use? How many cups does it hold?
Hi Jill, I use 11 cup food processor by Cuisinart.
Why didn't you use blade for dough?
Can I use the food procesar to do bread dough whit yeast?
can I use olive oil, butter or coconut oil? I don't buy vegetable oil...
Yes you can. It is used to lubricate the bowl for easy movement of dough.
How many days can we store them in the freezer?
2 months
@@poonamskitchen Thank you for the reply.
Can we cut the kneading process down with food processor?, or do we have to also knead by hand? thank you. :)
By using the food processor, we cut down the kneading time by a lot. Only 10-15 seconds of kneading by hand is required at the end, to bring all the dough together and to give the dough a smooth finish. Hope this helps. Do watch the video for more clarity.
How much is the flour amount in grams? please
Close to 500 grams.
Which food processor are u using ? Also can u please suggest good product ?
In the video I am using Cuisinart food processor 11 cup. I have always used the same brand for the last 10 years.. While I was in India, I used Inalsa for 15 years. i won't really be able to comment on any other brand as I have not personally experienced them
I use the Breville 16 cup sous chef. Expensive but worth every bit of the money. 25 years warranty on the motor. www.amazon.com/Breville-BFP800XL-Sous-Chef-Processor/dp/B005I6ZKCE/ref=sr_1_2?hvadid=176955312855&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9009231&hvnetw=g&hvpos=1t3&hvqmt=e&hvrand=10023311697862268857&hvtargid=kwd-27423630968&hydadcr=13934_9624574&keywords=breville+sous+chef&qid=1571770029&sr=8-2
The best chapati dough recipe using a food processor. If you are still reading the comments, I would like to know if using the 7 cups model of the same brand would work, say half the size of recipe since you are using the chopping blade and the "ON" button, not the dough button.
Thanks a ton for the appreciation!
Yes, the smaller model would also work. In fact, I have tried this with very small blending jars as well wherein you add all the water in the beginning, and of course that is just for little quantity of dough.
My best guess is that it would work with all brands, there just may be a little play required once or twice and kneading dough would be perfected.
Nice video. But I'm rather sure you should use the plastic blades for kneading dough instead of the metallic one
Thanks. In my experience the metal blade does a better job, that's why I prefer to use metal one. Do check out this article that supports my experience www.americastestkitchen.com/guides/how-to-use-a-food-processor/how-to-knead-dough-with-your-food-processor
If you check online, you will find many articles to support my choice.
Happy kneading!
Which food processor are you using?
I have 11 cup processor by Cuisinart
my food processor does not have an opening like this to constantly pour water , I just put water along with dough and run the machine , I stop and add more water if needed
Where is the recipe I can’t find it?
Lilia, there is no recipe per say. It is a method to knead for which you have to watch the video
Thanks for this tip just tried got best result
Plse share more tips
+chamkila7 Great!! I'm glad you liked it. Please subscribe to Poonam's Kitchen. There are many videos with useful tips. I also keep posting new videos.
Very sweet voice. H.kaur
Great tips!
thank u for sharing ur trick...
Please, do you have the measurements in cups? Also, why no salt ? Or oil ? Thank you
Tanna, I have taken 2 cups of whole wheat wheat flour in each batch that goes in the food processor. The brand that I use needs 210 ml of water (that is more than 3/4 cup but less than 1 cup). All measuring cups have graduations for ml (milliliter) as well.
The brand of flour that you use may need a little more/same or less than 210 ml. You will find the exact amount of water needed for your flour once you knead it 2-3 times.
I prefer not to add any salt or extra oil as I feel that it doesn't make much of a difference to the dough. It's a personal choice.
name of food processor plz...thnaks
Food processor in video is by Cuisinart. I also use food processor by Kitchen aid, that too gives perfect results. Any food processor will make perfect dough, one just needs to get right proportion of flour and water.
Good one buddy !! :)
+Mannu Mankani Thanks!!
210ml to water is 1 or 2 glass of water? Please tell everything in cups
From flour to water
Riddhi 1 cup water is 240 ml ( saying 210 ml exactly in cups will be hard. It is more than 3/4 cup but less than 1 cup)....flour is 2 cup..hope this helps. Thanks for checking out the video.
Thank for sharing!
I have started using the food processor too for making chapathi dough. Had a question, i saw that you did not use the dough button, while i always do that. So wanted to check if we need to use the dough button at all.
+Jayanthi Sridhar You noticed correct. Initially when I tried making dough with the dough blade, I used to switch on both the buttons. The 'ON' and dough....but then I realized that the chopping blade gives better results, so started doing only the "ON' button..... No dough blade and no dough switch.
Thanks for the info.And btw, i love watching your recipe videos.
Thank you so much!! Stay connected.
can u tell which s that food processor
Cuisinart 11 cup food processor
Poonam's Kitchen b
Thanks for sharing
thanku for the useful tips🙏
Welcome 😊
Can you show hat you do with the dough?
Karen, I did not understand your comment. What are you looking for me to show?
How is that quicker and less hassle than just mixing it all together in a bowl? With the food processor machine you have to clean it and it doesn’t even knead it
Many many thanks😀
don't you have a dough tool?
Aamir, dough can be kneaded several ways. What is shared in the video is just one of them
New to your channel ..Thanks for sharing. :")
my rotis always turns hard after cooking. just when thinking to give up making rotis, I saw yr video, will try our method for a last time before I totally giveup making chapattis. tks
+Koulu Koti hEY PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP MAKING ROTIS. There is nothing that cannot be achieved with practice. Do try this method of kneading for a soft dough. Also, there is a chance that you are making rotis at high heat. Check out my roti making video. That is also going to be useful. Here is the link to the roti making video ua-cam.com/video/X_6n1PQcL90/v-deo.html
Oh tks Poonam for yr suggestion, yes indeed I use to cook
rotis on high heat for just couple of mins, now I think it's wrong way till seeing your method.will try today and get back to you
Be assured, your rotis will come out just fine. I will wait for your feedback dear.

Royal brand is a great brand for most Indian and Middle Eastern food. :)
Yes, it works great for us, and so do many other brands as well.
Can you please give measurements for ingredients
Whole wheat flour 2 cups ( touches 500 ml mark in the measuring cup)
Water 210 ml ( quantity of water may vary a little bit with the brand of flour used)
Oil for greasing bowl and the blade ( as required)
If you haven't already you should contact Cuisinart for the new blade style. Should be free
The rivet blade like you have here in video was recalled for possible safety issue of blade breaking and possibly getting metal into food.
Hi, thanks for looking out! Really appreciate it.
This video was shot in 2015. We got the new blade, free of cost after the recall.
MaM we need ingredients
Thank YOU VERY MUCH!
You're welcome!
That's a Cuisinart.
Looks like one of the prep series.
Prep 11 plus.
Great model. Smaller footprint than the classic swri s but with same induction motors as the classics and old ones.
In my opinion their new elemental series sucks. Don't have the quiet induction motors. The new elite series do but they are at a much higher price point.
I separate cuisinart into 3 generations
Here's some history and explanation about cuisinart good processors:
Gen 1: The originals which are still made with the square base. Good high power induction motors. Dlc-7 (now called custom 14, 14 cup), dlc-8 (pro custom 11 now 11 cup), and dlc-10 (called pro classic now 7 cup).
Best thing is all the older dlc-8 discs fit the dlc-10/dlc-8 models (7 and 11) including some gen 2 models up next.
Gen 2: these are the prep series. Prep 9 (I think discontinued), prep 11 plus (11 cup same discs as the gen 1 , 7 and 11 cup models) and prep 7 (discontinued).
Gen 3 are the new elite and elemental processors. The elemental use loud crappy motors and don't accept any if the gen1 or gen 2 discs and use different stuff that's mostly plastic. The elite have the nice motors but also use different disc/cutter systems that again I don't feel are anywhere near the toughness of older styles.
There's a reason that the old gen1 styles lasted for 30 years. The gen 2 seem great too (I have prep 11 plus) and these ones come with the 10 year motor warranty which says a lot about the company's belief on quality. The gen 1 models have 5 year motor warranty but I believe are same motors.
Gen 3 I have no idea the warranty but if you held the cutting discs from the gen1/gen2 then felt the new elemental/elite cutting system you'd know what I mean
Wow! That is some detailed information. Thanks for all your input. Means so much to me.
@@poonamskitchen I figure with how many asking about the model it would help them make a choice.
@@2010stoof That's very kind of you. Thanks!

why is not posting?
Readers... This is 11 cup model.
Yes it is! Thanks!
Tried it and it was a flop. Where is the salt??? You should post complete recipes.
This is complete recipe as I make dough. This is a tried and tested method over decades. As I shared in the video you have to adjust water quantity as per your brand/quality of flour. If it was a flop once, take the learnings of that attempt and use in the second attempt. By the way, why do you need to add salt to dough??
too much electricity and machine consumption as well, just for a very little quantity of flour.
I totally understand. This is an alternate method for those people who cannot knead by hand due to medical reasons, mostly arthritis patients. Then there are people who find it messy to knead by hand
Hi Poonan, tks, tks a lot for the recipe. Like mentioned I tried yr way making chapati, believe me it came out really soft for the first in 5yrs almost give up till yr video advise, am Indian but not from India,seen a lot of different ways and other videos, not effective, till yours. It's really wonderful of you to show the real way of doing recipes the most is the tips which you give. Now even my friends are in your videos. Please keep posting for more interesting recipes.
