From the first spoon of lentil soup to the last fork of sweet knafeh and all the savory kabseh and other dishes in between, your Ramadan meals will be delicious tasting and a delight to prepare with the distinctive 33-function Philips Essence HR 7753 food processor.
 
“With the blessed month of Ramadan upon us, and all the cooking and entertaining that comes with this happy time of the year, the Philips Essence is sure to help make things better for busy cooks. It is an ideal assistant with a powerful and tireless 800W motor, large capacity bowls and multi-function chopping, slicing and shredding to let you prepare the most delicious and interesting meals,” said Louis Hakim, Domestic Appliances and Personal Care Regional Marketing Manager, Philips Electronics Middle East and Africa.
 
Whether you are blending lentils for soup, chopping peppers for kabseh or crushing nuts for knafeh, the Philips Essence is versatile enough for all your diverse meal-preparation tasks. It also has a blender, a juicer, a dough maker, a juice extractor, and a vegetable shredder and slicer for all the other dishes you prepare during Ramadan and all year long.
 
As with all Philips products, safety features have been built into the appliance to give you the peace of mind you need for your family. It has an automatically resettable thermal cut out that protects the motor against overheating, a built-in safety lock (click system) that detects whether the food processor bowl or blender is securely in place and suction feet for a stable machine that means all you have to do is place your ingredients in the bowl and leave the rest to the Philips Essence.
 
With a two-year global guarantee that reflects the company’s confidence in the quality of its product and a long-term commitment to its consumers, the Philips Essence offers you reliability you can depend on when preparing your Ramadan meals.
 
With an attractive design, the latest technology, a large capacity and easy cleaning and dishwasher-safe construction, this food processor is just the aid to help you impress your iftar and suhoor guests and delight your family during this holy month.
 
Through the end of Ramadan, or while supplies last, Philips is offering a special seasonal promotion. With the purchase of any Essence food processor, buyers get a free Philips-branded picnic backpack containing four sets of cutlery, plates and glasses.
