KitchenAid Casserole Oval Cast Iron Empire Red 30 cm / 5.6 Litres - enamelled non-stick coating

A whole chicken that slowly cooks until the meat falls off the bone. A hearty casserole that fills the kitchen with aroma. A roast that you proudly place in the centre of the table. That's what the KitchenAid Casserole Oval Empire Red 30 cm does for you - and in a colour that steals the show. This is not a pot you hide away in a cupboard. This is a pot you display.

Why Cast Iron is the Best Choice for Stews

Cast iron is the material that professional chefs have trusted for centuries - and that's no coincidence. It heats slowly and evenly, retains heat better than any other material, and releases that heat gently. Exactly what you need when you want to simmer meat for hours. No hotspots, no burning, no rushing. Just patient cooking that rewards you on the plate.

• Superior heat distribution - Cast iron evenly distributes heat across the entire base and walls, ensuring your dish cooks evenly throughout.
• Excellent heat retention - Once hot, the pot stays warm for a long time, ideal for stews and slow cooking.
• Enamelled interior - No seasoning required - you can start cooking right away, and the smooth layer is resistant to metal kitchen utensils.
• Naturally PFAS-free - Cast iron is naturally free from PFAS and other harmful substances.
• Suitable for all heat sources - Gas, electric, halogen, ceramic, and induction - and oven safe up to 260 degrees Celsius.
• Self-basting lid - The lid features a raised rim for ice cubes, allowing condensation to drip back into your dish for extra juicy results.

The Oval Shape that Makes a Difference

Round pots are nice, but sometimes you just want to prepare a whole chicken. Or a roast that doesn't fit in a round pot. The oval shape of this casserole is not just a design choice - it's a practical decision that makes your cooking life easier. With a length of 30 cm and a capacity of 5.6 litres, there's room for a meal for 5 to 7 persons. No fuss, no halving, no compromises. Just a large, tasty dish that you serve generously at the table.

The ergonomic handles are securely attached and provide a safe grip, even when the pot is heavily loaded. And that stainless steel lid knob - stylish, heat-resistant, and easy to grip. Every detail is perfect.

Empire Red: The Colour that Puts Your Stew on the Map

Cooking is more than just combining ingredients - it's an experience. And that experience begins with what you see before you take the first bite. The Empire Red colour of this casserole is not a subtle addition to your kitchen. It's a statement. Bright, confident, warm - exactly the energy you want at the table.

Thanks to the enamelled exterior, that red shine is maintained even after years of use. The pot goes straight from the heat to the table, without the need to transfer it to a serving dish. That saves a plate to wash, and your dish stays warmer while everyone serves themselves. That's how dining should be: enjoying together, without hassle.

Start Cooking Immediately, No Fuss

One of the biggest advantages of this KitchenAid casserole is the enamelled non-stick coating on the inside. No seasoning, no special first-use ritual, no hassle. You take the pot out of the packaging, give it a rinse, and you can start cooking right away. Searing meat, sautéing onions, adding broth - everything goes smoothly in this pot.

The enamelled layer is also resistant to metal kitchen utensils. Just use your favourite spoon or spatula - or even a fork to turn the meat - without worrying about scratches. That's how a casserole should work: without rules and restrictions, just good cooking.

Wash the pot by hand after use for the best and longest-lasting results. This way, it maintains its shine and performs at the same high level year after year.

💡 Tip: Place a few ice cubes on the lid while simmering. The raised rim keeps them in place, and the melting water cools the lid so that condensation drips back into your dish. This keeps your stew extra juicy - the secret of that one dish everyone keeps asking for.
