KitchenAid Casserole Cast Iron Empire Red ø 22 cm / 3.3 Litres - enamelled non-stick coating

Tender stews that fall off the bone. A chilli that has been simmering for hours. Soup that the whole street enjoys. The KitchenAid Casserole Cast Iron Empire Red ø 22 cm makes it all possible - and looks stunning too. This is not a pan you hide in a cupboard: this is a pan that proudly takes centre stage on your table.

Why Cast Iron Reigns Supreme

Cast iron has been the favourite material of the best home cooks for centuries for a reason. The material has a unique property: it slowly absorbs heat but retains it exceptionally well. Once hot, this pan stays warm - even when you take it off the heat. This means your stew can simmer for hours at a constant, gentle temperature without you needing to stand over it. Just set it up, put the lid on, and let the pan do the work.

• Exceptional heat retention - Cast iron keeps heat constant, ideal for stews and slow cooking
• From searing to serving - Brown your meat to perfection, then let it simmer for hours - all in the same pan
• Enamelled - ready to cook immediately - No fuss with seasoning: the enamelled coating is ready to use straight away
• PFAS-free cast iron - No harmful substances, naturally safe for you and the environment
• Resistant to metal utensils - No scratches from your spatula or spoon: this pan is sturdy and built to last a lifetime
• Suitable for all heat sources - Gas, electric, halogen, ceramic, and induction - plus oven safe up to 260 °C
• Empire Red: a showstopper on the table - So chic and timeless in colour that you’ll want to display it for all to enjoy.

Multi-layer enamel: the smart coating that changes everything

Traditional cast iron requires a lot of attention: seasoning, careful maintenance, never cooking acidic foods. The KitchenAid version does it all differently. The multi-layer enamel coating - made from natural materials - completely changes the game. The interior is non-reactive and acid-resistant, so you can cook tomatoes, wine, or citrus dishes without any worries. The enamel protects the cast iron, provides a smooth cooking surface, and makes cleaning a breeze. Just wash by hand, and you’re done. No special oils, no rituals - just cooking.

And that coating is not just tough: it’s scratch-resistant and chip-resistant, so your pan will still look fresh after years of heavy use. Quality that proves itself day after day.

The lid with a clever trick

At first glance, it looks like a regular lid. But take a closer look: the edge of the lid has a raised rim where you can literally place ice cubes. The temperature difference causes steam to condense on the inside of the lid - and that moisture drips neatly back into your dish. The result? Dishes that are juicier, more tender, and tastier. Your stew won’t dry out, your soup won’t lose flavour to steam, and everything you prepare stays just as moist as it should be. That’s not coincidence, that’s smart design.

The lid knob is made of stainless steel - sturdy and stylish, even after years of use. And the ergonomic handles are so comfortable to hold that you can carry the pan - even filled with a steaming stew - confidently and securely. From stove to table, without stress.

From stove to table: the perfect one-pot dish

This is the pan for dishes that deserve time and love. Think of a classic boeuf bourguignon simmering all afternoon. Or a chilli con carne for four on a cold Sunday evening. Or simply a rich tomato soup that fills the kitchen with a scent that makes you smile as soon as you walk in. The 3.3-litre capacity is perfect for 2 to 4 persons - large enough for a family meal, small enough for a romantic dinner.

And when the food is ready? Just place the pan on the table. In Empire Red, it looks so beautiful that you’d never want to hide it away. Enjoying the meal starts with seeing it - and this pan delivers that moment with flair.

💡 Cookinglife Tip: Always heat your casserole slowly: start on low to medium heat and give the cast iron time to warm evenly. This ensures perfect heat distribution and prevents thermal shock. For the best browning crust: dry your meat well before searing and don’t overcrowd the pan.
