Forged Non-Stick Kadai vs Enamel Kadai – Which to Choose?
Both are traditional karahi-style cooking vessels, but with different construction and capabilities:
- Enamel Kadai (also available in 24cm, 28cm, and 32cm) – Traditional enamel construction. Durable and affordable. Not non-stick. Not induction compatible. No lid included.
- Forged Non-Stick Kadai (this product) – Premium forged aluminium with marble effect non-stick coating. Induction compatible. Glass lid included. Soft-touch silicone handles. Easier to clean. Better for cooking karahi dishes where food is cooked in the sauce.
For deep frying only, the enamel kadai is a great value choice. For a more versatile kadai that can deep fry, cook karahi dishes, and be used on an induction hob, the forged non-stick is the better investment.
Hob Compatibility
- ✅ Induction hob
- ✅ Gas hob
- ✅ Electric hob
- ✅ Ceramic hob
Care Instructions
- Hand wash recommended to preserve the non-stick coating

- Do not use metal utensils – use silicone, wooden, or nylon utensils to protect the non-stick surface
- Avoid overheating on high heat with no food or oil in the pan
- Dry thoroughly after washing
- Not dishwasher recommended – hand washing extends the life of the non-stick coating
