Le Creuset Cast Iron Shallow Casserole 26 cm

The Le Creuset Cast Iron Shallow Casserole 26 cm is a premium and versatile cookware piece for browning, stir frying, stewing, roasting, cooking vegetables, meat, fish, rice, oven dishes and slow-cooked recipes with excellent heat retention. Its wide, flat shape and shallow sides encourage caramelisation and balanced evaporation, making it ideal for flavour-rich cooking.

Made from enamelled cast iron, this Le Creuset shallow casserole distributes heat evenly and retains temperature for longer, allowing precise cooking and browning. The tight-fitting lid helps retain moisture inside the dish, intensifying the natural aromas of the ingredients and keeping food succulent during cooking.

At 26 cm with a capacity of 2.2 litres, it is ideal for compact meals, generous side dishes, recipes for two to three people, stir fries, smaller roasts and dishes that benefit from a broad cooking surface. The large side handles make it easy to move from hob to oven and from kitchen to table, always with oven gloves when hot.

Suitable for induction, gas, ceramic glass, electric hob, oven, grill and freezer use, this enamelled cast iron shallow casserole combines professional performance, exceptional durability and elegant table presentation. To protect the finish and achieve the best results, low to medium heat is recommended.
