Description
The Le Creuset Tagine is a cast iron cooking dish with a coolie style lid. It is made from earthenware, so it retains moisture and heat, and is suitable for gas, electric, ceramic, halogen, oil/wood and induction. The dish has a rim edge so it can be lifted easily, and is oven, grill, freezer and dishwasher safe. The Le Creuset Tagine is a traditional North African dish, and is made with lamb, beef, chicken, sweet vegetables (carrots, tomatoes, aubergines), and fruits (lemon, dates, oranges). The combination of meats, sweet vegetables, and fruits is very typical of North African cookery. The sweetness is offset by the use of plenty of spices and cayenne pepper. The Le Creuset Tagine has a lifetime guarantee on the base.
The base cooking dish is made from cast iron with a flat bottom. It can be used on any heat source, or on it's own as a baking dish in the oven. The coolie style lid is made from earthenware so it still offers the same cooking features as the original. Steam is re-condensed into water droplets on its cool walls and falls back into the ingredients keeping it moist.
The 31cm size portion size suits 6 to 8 people.
