• 11-inch: suited for a family of 4–5 for slightly larger everyday portions of curry, stew, or rice
• 12-inch: a generous everyday pot for a family of 4–6; the most popular all-round size for Pakistani home cooking — handles biryani, dal, and curry for a standard household
• 14-inch: for larger families of 6–8 or for batch cooking; handles a generous biryani or nihari portion, large stock batches, and casual dawat cooking
• 16-inch: for large families, catering, and entertaining; accommodates full dawat portions of biryani or haleem for 8–12 people

• 20-inch: the largest available size — commercial and catering scale; suitable for large event cooking, bulk stock preparation, and professional kitchen use

Features

• Heavy-duty stainless steel construction for professional durability — the stainless steel body is built for repeated high-heat daily use in home and commercial kitchens; it resists warping, corrosion, and structural degradation under heavy loads and extended cooking times, maintaining its shape and performance across years of regular use
• Matching stainless steel lid included — the fitted lid retains heat and moisture during cooking, reducing cooking time and preserving the flavour and moisture of slow-cooked dishes such as nihari, biryani (dum), and stews; the stainless steel lid is more durable and heat-resistant than glass lids, and will not crack or shatter
• 10 size options for every cooking need — the range from 7-inch to 20-inch covers every cooking task from a single-serving sauce to large-scale catering; choose the right size for the portion and task rather than compromising with an unsuitable pot
• Polished corrosion-resistant finish — the stainless steel polished surface resists rust and staining under normal cooking and cleaning use, maintains its bright appearance over time, and is non-reactive with acidic or alkaline foods such as tomato-based gravies, tamarind, and citrus
• Versatile cooking functions — suitable for boiling (rice, pasta, potatoes), simmering (dal, gravy, custard), stewing (nihari, haleem, paya), slow cooking (stock, bone broth), and steaming with an appropriate steamer insert; one pot covers the full range of everyday Pakistani cooking techniques
• Suitable for home and catering use — the larger sizes (16-inch, 18-inch, 20-inch) are appropriate for catering, dawat cooking, and professional kitchen environments where a durable, high-capacity stainless steel pot is required at a practical price point

Use Cases

• Everyday family cooking: boiling rice, making dal, simmering curry, or preparing any daily meal in the right-sized pot for the household (10–12 inch most popular for standard Pakistani families)
• Biryani & dum cooking: using the lid for sealed dum cooking of biryani, retaining steam and aroma inside the pot for authentic slow-cooked results
• Nihari, haleem & slow-cooked dishes: the heavy-duty stainless steel construction and tight-fitting lid make this pot well suited for slow-cooking meat dishes over several hours
• Stock & bone broth: preparing large batches of chicken stock, beef bone broth, or paya stock in the 14–20 inch sizes for meal prep and freezing
• Dawat & catering: using the large sizes (16–20 inch) to cook full portions for guests, Eid gatherings, weddings, and events where volume and durability are the priority

• Hand wash or dishwasher safe — stainless steel pots can be washed by hand with warm soapy water and a soft sponge, or placed in the dishwasher; hand washing is recommended for maintaining the polished finish over time
• Avoid abrasive sponges and steel wool on the exterior polished surface — these scratch the finish; use a soft sponge or cloth for the outer surface and a slightly firmer sponge for the interior if needed
• For stubborn burnt-on food, fill the pot with water and a small amount of dish soap and bring to a gentle simmer on the hob for 10–15 minutes; this loosens residue without scrubbing the interior surface
• Dry thoroughly after washing — wipe the pot dry rather than leaving it to air dry to prevent water spots and mineral deposits forming on the stainless steel surface
• Do not use bleach or chlorine-based cleaners — these can pit and discolour the stainless steel surface over time; use mild dish soap instead
• Store in a dry location — stacking is fine for stainless steel pots; place the lid separately or inverted on top of the pot rather than sealed on during storage to allow air circulation
