MasterClass 28cm Shallow Cast Aluminium Casserole Dish with Self-Basting Lid Non-Stick Induction Purple 4L

• Cast aluminium construction: High-quality recycled cast aluminium provides a lightweight yet durable alternative to traditional cast iron, with rapid and even heat distribution.
• 28cm, 4L capacity: Shallow round design provides generous cooking space for family-sized casseroles, stews, curries, braises and one-pot meals.
• All-hob and oven compatible: Stainless steel base works on induction, gas, ceramic, halogen, radiant ring and solid-plate hobs; oven safe up to 200°C / 392°F.
• Self-basting lid and practical pouring design: Lid helps retain moisture during cooking, while the built-in strainer and drip-free pouring lip make draining and serving easier.

The MasterClass 28cm Shallow Cast Aluminium Casserole Dish is a versatile 4-litre cooking pot designed for everyday family cooking, from slow-cooked stews and casseroles to curries, braised dishes and oven-baked meals. Its lightweight cast aluminium construction combines durability with easier handling than traditional cast iron cookware, while allowing heat to spread quickly and evenly across the cooking surface.

The shallow, round profile provides a broad cooking area that is particularly useful for sautéing, browning, braising and preparing one-pot meals. With a generous 4-litre capacity, it is well suited to family portions and entertaining.

A stainless steel base makes the casserole suitable for all major hob types, including induction, while its oven-safe construction allows food to move directly from the hob into the oven at temperatures up to 200°C (392°F). This makes it useful for recipes requiring multiple cooking stages without transferring food between pans.

The interior features a double-layer non-stick coating designed to promote easy food release and simplify cleaning. The casserole is also dishwasher safe, although handwashing is recommended before first use and oven gloves should be used when handling hot cookware.

The included self-basting lid features a textured underside designed to help retain and redistribute moisture during cooking, helping keep stews, casseroles and braised dishes moist. A built-in strainer and drip-free pouring lip add practical functionality when draining liquids or serving sauces and gravy.

Finished in Purple with a contrasting speckled interior, this MasterClass casserole combines practical cooking performance with a modern appearance suitable for serving directly at the table. The product is supplied as a single casserole dish with lid and is identified by model MCMSCRD28PUR and EAN 5057982109813.
