Perfect casserole dish for four to fourteen,
This cast iron casserole dish is heavy but something to treasure. The thick metal distributes heat evenly across the base when on the hob and the close fitting lid keeps the dishes moist after hours of slow cooking in the oven. Even out of the oven the dish retains heat well.
Surprisingly even after the six years since we received it as a wedding present the surface wipes clean and is perfectly presentable on the table top.
The dish requires two hands to lift but is not unwieldy and manages small and large portions equally well.

|Quality pot that keeps things HOT!!!!!!!!!!,
Both myself and my wife do the cooking so it was an investment in buying this product, however it seems to have payed off. Since using this and finding how easy it was to make things ‘all in the one dish’ my wife has decided that she will do the majority of the cooking. It keeps things hot for ages and you can tell you are buying quality cause it wieghs an absolute ton! Believe me it is well worth the money and it creates less hassle when cooking dishes as you can just leave it in the oven and forget about it….perfect!

|Le Creusetastic!,
I bought this when it was on a clearance sale on this site for around £50. What a bargain! If you’re looking at this, then you are obviously aware of the quality associated with Le Creuset, and want to purchase a serious piece of kit for your kitchen.
This is awesome. It is so versatile and can be used on practically any hob surface, and can also be put straight into the oven after being on the hob! Personally I have found it has revolutionised my cooking, as I now use it for practically everything I cook! The lid on this also (when positioned correctly) fits the pot perfectly, and prevents any steam from escaping. I was cooking a tomato sauce the other day with the lid on, and after half an hour, it was still as wet as I wanted it! Without such a well fitting lid, most of the water would have just boiled away. (Which I didn’t want to happen in that instance).
Not only is it practical, but it also stylish as well. The classic orange Le Creuset cast iron pans/pots are extremely iconic, and have a timeless look. Sometimes I will use this to cook something on the hob, put it in the oven, and then take to the table for people to serve from, and it looks great! Not only that, but they will last forever as well. A friend of mine has her mum’s and it is about 30 years old but is still going strong! Regardless of whether you purchase this in a sale or not, it is still going to be an expensive piece of kit. Don’t be shy about buying it though as you will use it a lot.
