Hi-tech kitchen sets benchmark in student welfare
Representative Image MANGALURU: In a significant step towards modernising student welfare infrastructure, the Ambika Group of Educational Institutions in Puttur has set up a state-of-the-art kitchen that blends efficiency, hygiene, and technology. Run by the Nattoja Foundation Trust, the institution invested in a fully automated cooking facility designed to serve hostel students with nutritious meals promptly and hygienically. Every task, from chopping vegetables to final food preparation, is mechanised. There are machines to knead dough for chapatis, roll the dough into chapatis, transfer them to the cooking area, and even move the cooked chapatis to a designated tray. The machine can produce about 600 to 800 chapatis per hour. When needed, it can also be used to make pooris instead of chapatis. A steam system has been implemented for cooking rice, enabling boiled rice to be cooked in just 15 minutes and parboiled rice in 30 minutes, saving both time and fuel. Vegetables too can be steamed hygienically and efficiently using this system. It is also used for boiling milk. This state-of-the-art kitchen was set up at a cost of approximately Rs 40 lakh. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like One of the Most Successful Investors of All Time, Warren Buffett, Recommends: 5 Books for Turning...
