 It's awesome Jul 25, 2010
By Ram Eachambadi
"Ram"
Hawkins Pressure Cooker is really good. I had a "Prestige" earlier in which the washer broke and got misplaced. So, I bought this one. Prestige was leaking out water every time it whistled and made a mess of everything. Hawkins never leaks, when it whistles. And it cooks everything thoroughly. So, it does what it is supposed to do damn well. And that is all that is needed. The only thing about Hawkins that is a little bit of a problem is opening the lid and closing it. It can sometimes be frustratingly difficult to do that. But, this is just a minor trick that you need to get used to. So, everything considered, this is a great pressure cooker.

Cooking for two under pressure Oct 08, 2010
By Tingleykid
All our birds and their own chicks have flown the nest so our big pots and pans are of little use to us. We were unaware that pressure cookers are available in small sizes until we watched an Indian recipe video. Locating a supplier in Canada met with no success but Amazon.com offered this product Hawkins Classic Aluminum 2.0 Litre Pressure Cookerin a wide range of sizes and we selected the two litre cooker which turned out to be ideal. The 2 litre cooker allows ample servings for two persons and we use it for all sorts of cuisines and recipes, Indian, European, Chinese, and North American especially. Just a couple of drawbacks - for aging hands and eyes the method of fitting and sealing the lid requires some practice, and the handle-locking device gets very hot and can deliver a nasty burn if you forget to use a mitt. Pressurizing and safety devices work well and the cooker is a breeze to clean and care for. We are delighted with results so far.

Cooker Nov 02, 2010
By nurseed
This is not the first Hawkins product that I have purchased but this one is fast. The one think that caught me by surprise was how the pressure works and the sound it makes during cooking. I was not accustomed to hearing that so it scared me at first because I thought it was going to blow the weight or gasket, instead of a constant whistle it made short burst of steam. Overall I am satisfied with this product.

Great Little Machine Jul 14, 2010
By RLL
I probably should have got the next size up from the smallest. But it does what it says really well. The blast of steam it releases about once a minute (if you have the burner set so it does, which is recommended) is a little disconcerting at first. It will do 1 cup of raw beans, or 1 lb of meat - don't add more water than the recipe calls for - otherwise it is a little more exciting. We don't use many legumes, so it is nice to cook a small amount in just a few minutes, rather than have canned beans pass their expiration date.
ps It advises only 1/3 cup of certain pulses (we call them lentils) which can clog the vent. But they cook so fast, why use a pressure cooker.
