      +−What is it?

      upliance is a steel jar on a smart base with a touchscreen. It weighs, chops, kneads, sautés, stirs and cooks, and the screen tells you what to drop in next. Scroll to watch it knead chapati dough from above.

    2. You, 1 min

      Atta, water, oil. In.

      +−What goes in

      150 g whole-wheat atta, 110 ml water and 1 tbsp oil, all at once. That's two servings, four chapatis. Pour straight into the jar: upliance weighs as you go. Pick your atta brand in the app and it nudges the weight a little (150–165 g), since every atta drinks water differently.

      +−What's the jar doing?

      The blade kneads in short bursts with a pause after each one, about 30 rounds, and the flour and water go from dusty to crumbly to one rough dough. No floury hands, no sticky fingers. Use the time to get the tawa hot.

      Then smooth and soft

      +−Why a last minute?

      To finish, it kneads non-stop for a full minute. That's the stretch that turns a rough lump into a soft, smooth dough, the bit that usually makes your arms ache.

    5. You, 1 min

      Blade out, dough out

      +−Blade first?

      Lift the blade out first, then scrape the dough into a bowl with the spatula. It comes away in one piece.

    6. You, 1 min

      Shape it. Roll chapatis.

      +−Finish

      Press the dough into a smooth ball and it's ready to roll. For bigger batches, give it a short knead by hand till it all comes together. That bit is yours.
