This makes it particularly well suited to dishes that require consistent, even heat — such as curries, dals, and rice dishes where scorching on the base is a common problem with thinner pots. Heavy gauge aluminium cookware like the Mastercook casserole retains heat well once up to temperature, making it efficient to cook with on both gas and electric hobs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHob Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e✅ Gas hob\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e✅ Electric hob\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e✅ Ceramic hob\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e❌ Not suitable for induction hobs (aluminium is not magnetic)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHand wash recommended to preserve the finish and extend the life of the cookware\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWash with warm soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvoid abrasive scourers or steel wool which may scratch the surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDry thoroughly after washing to prevent water marks\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDo not leave acidic foods (such as tomato-based dishes) sitting in the pot for extended periods\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mastercook","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49535907660051,"sku":"742288759163","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0252\/8267\/4787\/files\/742288759163.jpg?v=1736171479","url":"https:\/\/www.latifs.co.uk\/products\/mastercook-30cm-aluminium-casserole-with-lid-large-heavy-duty-long-life-cookware","provider":"Latifs.
