    regarding utensils ..........you get everything here ,
    but not very satisfactory ... i feel the quality of vessels is little low as compared to what we get in india .

    i have never found a good murukku press yet ......

    you will get good appam chatti and pressure cooker

    like someone previously mentioned , if you get utensils then you will not be able to get anything else

    so get thats really important , buy only few and necessary utensils and during your next visits to india you can get more

    nandini i have checked in all lulu s ...... the screw type is available
    i want the other one .... the pressing kind

    moreover , these leave black stain on the mix you put in
    esp in aluminium or steel one
    is there a way to get rid of this ?
    (washing alone doesnt help)

    Hi jils,

    sorry ya!, i don't know the differences of screw type and pressing type of murukku maker..but i have bought one from india(which is also pressing type) which has screw at the back, so that we can change the shapes according to our tastes..mine is aluminium..hope you understood :)..
