FAQs

Is this casserole dish truly non-stick?

While the cast aluminium provides good heat distribution that helps prevent sticking, it is not a non-stick coated surface. Proper preheating and sufficient cooking fat are recommended for optimal results.

What is the capacity of this casserole dish?

The dish has a capacity of 5 litres.

Can I use metal utensils with this dish?

It is best to use wooden, silicone, or plastic utensils to protect the interior finish and prevent scratches.

How do I clean the self-basting lid?

The lid can be washed by hand with warm, soapy water. Ensure all nooks and crannies where condensation collects are cleaned.

Is the purple colour prone to chipping?

The exterior colour is designed for durability. However, like any cookware, avoiding harsh impacts or abrasive cleaning will help maintain its appearance.

Can I use this dish on an induction cooktop?

Yes, this casserole dish is suitable for all hob types, including induction.

What are the dimensions of the dish?

The dish has a diameter of 28cm.

Troubleshooting

Food sticking to the bottom

Ensure adequate preheating of the dish on low to medium heat and use sufficient cooking oil or fat. Avoid overheating.

Uneven cooking

Confirm the dish is centered on the hob burner and that heat levels are consistent. Ensure the hob is compatible and functioning correctly.

Exterior finish dulling

Wash by hand with mild detergent and avoid harsh scouring pads. Ensure the dish is thoroughly dried after washing.
