GreenPan Featherweights Oval Casserole 6.6L

Traditional cast iron pans are so heavy they often end up gathering dust in your cupboard, but you don’t need to be a weightlifter to get to casserole-cooking grips with this beauty. GreenPan’s Featherweights Oval Casserole is, as its name implies, so much easier to handle – in fact, it’s 50% lighter than a standard cast iron pan.

Cooking as good as it looks, and at 6.6 litres, big enough to feed the whole family and batch-cook for the freezer, this smart grey oval casserole (or Dutch oven) is made from die-cast aluminium so not only is it light, it also distributes heat quickly and evenly for consistent results, even when cooking at low temperatures. Add to this the self-basting double-wall insulated lid, which ensures succulent food every time; the metal utensil-friendly diamond-enhanced ceramic non-stick; and not forgetting the removable silicone handle covers for easy handling, and you have a versatile casserole that’s good for everything from stews to curries to risotto to meatballs to stir-fries and so much more. Now isn’t that a weight off your mind?

About GreenPan’s Featherweights range

Lightweight

Because these pans are made from die-cast aluminium, they’re up to 50% lighter than standard cast iron casseroles. They heat up quickly and evenly too – up to 3 times faster – and retain heat efficiently so they’re good for cooking at lower temperatures for longer.

Metal utensil-safe, non-toxic ceramic non-stick

GreenPan have used a brilliantly clever triple layer system to keep their Featherweights casseroles in tip-top condition no matter what your utensils are made of. On top there’s a coating of Thermolon Infinity Professional ceramic non-stick – fabulously effective and durable but with no chemical nasties; next, a layer of diamond crystals – literally rock hard protection for the surface of the pan; and finally, a patented reinforcing Scratch Guard layer.

Insulated lids

Double-walled to retain heat, the lids on these casseroles have a special pattern on the underside which makes them self-basting, so your food will stay moist and tender. Energy-saving induction base A patented base with Magneto induction technology ensures super-efficient performance on any hob.

Dishwasher safe

So there are no worries about adding your pans in the dishwasher with the rest of the washing-up, GreenPan have made sure the Featherweight range can cope with everything a modern home can throw at them, although hand-washing is recommended to prolong their life.

Free from PFA, PFOA, lead and cadmium.

Suitable for all hobs including induction.

Oven safe up to 200°C.

About GreenPan

A Belgian company, GreenPan is the brainchild of two school friends, Jan Helskens and Wim De Veirman, who set out to create a greener, non-toxic alternative to conventional non-stick pan coatings – and 10 years on, their pans are loved all around the world. Refusing to rest on their eco-friendly laurels, they use upcycled stainless steel and aluminium wherever possible and are constantly searching for new innovations such as reinforcing their Thermolon non-stick with diamonds to give it extra durability and resilience.
