Hawkins Classic Pressure Cookers (2 Litre), Aluminium

Small & cute, well made. Easy to use.%100 efficientHighly recommend.

used few times and had no issues. very secured lid compare to the one i had before.

After some of the bad reviews I read I was doubtful...but I have missed my pressure cooker as I always had one but wanted a small one and the 2 litre, although it IS small and cute too, seems to fit the bill.On reading the instructions I was a tad worried, especially by the lid situation but really, its easier than it seems at first and I made a lovely meal from it the evening after its arrival, and felt satisfied by my meal, as since xmas 23 ive been struggling with an Air Fryer and was starting to feel despondent of ever being able to cook a satisfying meal again lol.My only dislike is that non of the meals in the recipe book are traditional English grub but it IS an Indian product so understandable...but thankfully I used a pressure cooker for 25 years before to cook for a family of 5 so it wasnt too hard to piece together and there IS a separate list at the back for individual items and the required cut sizes and timings. The 2 litre does not recommend cooking foods that create froth on cooking such as legumes etc as you will need much more space to allow for the froth so as not to block up the hole vent.Its easy to clean and first recommended test use to get comfortable with it is with water and vinegar which leaves a handy 2 cup meaure mark around the level. Two uses have not stained the bottom at all as in some of the comments so Im glad about that but. If it does then it is only the natural wear and teae of usage Im sure, comparing to the old ones I used to have over years gone by.All in all, I love this little gadget and will eventually go bigger, maybe, so I can make the Legume curries in the recipe book so I can share my food with others as this one makes enough for one person and is fine for just me.

The cooker is very small..Please put correct pictures..It is a tiny cooker..

Brought this pressure cooker mainly to cook legumes. Had seen another one in store but as this was smaller decided to purchase this one as wasn't sure how much I would actually use it. I brought the 2L pressure cooker. Its ok, the lid is a real hassle to attach. Still don't think that I am attaching it correctly but have managed to use the cooker. It really is for 2 - 3 people. I must have missed that in the description. Basically it does what I brought it for but I don't love it. For me the big issue is trying to get the lid to attach correctly as the cooker itself has a lip and you have to push the lid slightly inside, turn it & then bring it up to attach securely to the cooker pot itself. So the lid sits securely under the pot lip. I find it a hassle. Reviewers don't seem to think its a problem. Will use it the pressure cooker but if / when I replace I would buy a different make.

👍🏻

Honestly so glad I bought this.After reading a few negative reviews I decided to take the plunge and just buy this pressure cooker.Very glad I did.I agree the lid takes some getting used to but the cooker itself is perfect.I got the 2 litre which was just right for me and my husband.My dhal cooked very quickly and my lamb curry was succulent and took half the time to cook compared to a regular saucepan.Im looking to purchase a larger Hawkins cooker soon.Its also very easy to clean.

Good
