Everyone wants to get their hands on one of these convenient, lightweight and cost-effective compact electric multi-cookers - it’s the new kitchen ‘must-have’. Shaped like a conventional saucepan, it’s easy to cook and serve from and incredibly flexible too. Without using your conventional gas or electric hob, you can boil, fry, cook, stir-fry, reheat and keep warm – using a fraction of the energy required for a normal stove. You’ll be impressed with the performance – water boils quickly, so it’s great for pasta or rice, and cooking soup, casseroles or Bolognese sauces is a doddle. It’s also the ideal choice when cooking for one or two. Easy to clean and store (takes the same space than a normal saucepan), it has dual temperature controls for gentle or rapid cooking, cool-touch sides and a removable power cable for serving at the table. A tough, non-stick surface guarantees fast and easy cleaning and lets you cook with less fat. 600W Max. Mains lead L80cm. H13 xW20 xL35.5cm. 1.4L capacity.
The Basilico Rapid Pot is designed for individuals or couples who need a convenient and energy-efficient way to cook small portions. Its key benefit is effortless countertop cooking, allowing you to boil, fry, and reheat meals with ease. A caveat is its 1.4L capacity, which is ideal for smaller meals but may not suit larger families. This compact electric saucepan offers a fast and easy cooking experience, perfect for busy lifestyles.
