A kadhai for festive cooking has to be roomy. The Stahl Artisan Triply Stainless Steel Kadhai in 24 cm (model 4324) holds 2.4 litres and comes with a matching stainless steel lid. It is the size for large-batch gravies, frying in rounds and the weekend dishes cooked for the whole family, and it works on gas as well as induction.
The body is triply: a 304 stainless steel cooking surface, an aluminium core that spreads heat across the base, and a magnetic 430 stainless steel outer layer for induction. That construction helps masala brown evenly instead of catching in one spot, and the kadhai also runs on electric, ceramic and halogen cooktops. Investment-cast stainless steel handles and the steel lid complete the build, and Stahl backs it with a 3-year warranty against manufacturing defects.
Varanasi kitchens have trusted Girdhar Das & Sons since 1970, and every Stahl product we stock is brand-authorised and 100% genuine, with manufacturer warranty support.

The wider surface and extra depth suit a family of five or more, a double batch of sabzi or dishes cooked for guests. There is room to stir a full gravy or fry in rounds without crowding the pan.
The 304 stainless steel inside is non-reactive, so tomato, tamarind and curd-based gravies keep a clean taste. The aluminium core carries heat evenly, which reduces the hot spot that burns masala in single-layer steel.
The magnetic 430 steel outer layer makes this kadhai induction compatible. It also works on gas, electric, ceramic and halogen cooktops, so it keeps working if your kitchen setup changes.
The steel lid fits the kadhai and is easy to clean, with no glass to chip or crack. It keeps heat and steam in for simmering dal, braising vegetables or finishing a gravy covered.
The handles are investment-cast stainless steel, a method used for solid, precisely shaped parts. They are built for a firm grip on a full pan. On a gas flame, keep a dry cloth handy in case they warm up.
The steel surface cleans easily, and Stahl designs its triply cookware to be dishwasher safe. The 3-year warranty against manufacturing defects covers both the kadhai and everyday peace of mind.
The 24 cm kadhai suits a wedding gift for a joint family, or for a couple who host often, because it is large enough for festive and guest cooking and sturdy enough to last. Triply steel, a steel lid and a 3-year warranty make it a present that gets used every week. For corporate gifting, it fits Diwali gifts for senior staff, long-service awards and dealer or client hampers, where a large, well-built kadhai looks substantial in a gift box and is useful in any kitchen.
With a 2.4 L capacity it suits a family of five or more for a single dish, or a gathering when you cook a larger batch. For smaller households, the 22 cm Artisan kadhai is easier to handle and store.

No. It is uncoated triply stainless steel. Preheat the pan, add oil and let it warm before adding ingredients, and food will release far more easily than it does from thin steel.
