Okay, so I had been looking for a big vessel to do mass cooking for a while and I came across this.
I genuinely LOVE this Decore Pot and recently bought another one to gift to my mother.
Advantages :
1. Its really big can easily cook 1.5 kgs of chicken and 2 kgs of rice in it, haven't experimented with more qty. But its capable of alot!
2. Because the bottom is so broad, your Veggies or chicken will not pile up one on top of the other and get evenly cooked and cooked very well.
3. I have noticed while cooking chicken that it cooks faster than in Kadai, infact the heat distribution is even and heats up quite well which reduces the cooking time.
4. Its very sturdy! and great looking. The lid is perfect too.
5. Very easy to clean, since you can reach every place of this stew pot.
6. Another great thing is that since its ceramic coating plus anodized bottom, things dont really stick at the bottom. I've actually not had problem of chicken or even biryani really sticking at the bottom, which i feel is fabulous!!
Disadvantages :
1. Size is big, so make sure you have storage space in your kitchen.
2. Since the size is big, make sure you have a vessel to store the same in the fridge since it will not fit in most of the refrigerators.
Verdict - I totally love it, i bought 2 of these as i said. Been using it for 2 months now. Great for biryani, cooking veg and non veg gravys. Shallow frying etc. Cons i wrote are ignorable and isnt a deal breaker. This is my fav vessel now in the kitchen, go for it!!
