The Cast Iron Loop – Round Skillet is a sturdy, everyday skillet designed for Indian kitchens that cook across styles. It is a circular cast iron pan with two loop handles, making it easy to lift, move, and serve. You can use it on the stove or inside the oven for baking, roasting, shallow frying, sautéing, or slow cooking.

Made from high-quality cast iron, this skillet heats evenly, holds heat for long, and keeps food warm after cooking. It suits daily meals as well as oven-based recipes.

While skillets come from Western cooking traditions, this version is adapted for Indian curries, vegetables, and everyday home food.

Product Highlights

• Dual loop handles for safe handling - The two side handles offer a firm grip when lifting the skillet from stove to oven or table. This makes it easier to handle hot food without tipping.
