The Le Creuset Classic Cast Iron Shallow Casserole 30cm Indigo lets you experience the pinnacle of French craftsmanship.

Handcrafted since 1925 in Le Creuset's northern France foundry, this versatile 3.2L casserole combines timeless design with breakthrough cooking technology.

Revolutionary Sand Enamel Interior

The newly engineered sand-coloured enamel interior represents Le Creuset's most significant innovation in cast iron technology.

This advanced surface offers 35-40% higher thermal shock resistance and superior durability against wear and tear.

With 24% better enamel erosion protection and enhanced stain resistance, this casserole delivers unmatched performance while being easier to clean than previous generations.

Professional-Grade Design

Thoughtful design elements elevate this classic piece, from the ergonomic phenolic knob to the extra-large, easy-grip handles that ensure confident handling even with oven gloves.

The engineered lid, complete with built-in stabilizers, creates a superior seal to lock in moisture and flavour during cooking.

The premium cast iron construction, finished in sophisticated Indigo enamel, makes a stunning statement in any kitchen.

Versatile Cooking Performance

From creamy risottos to tender braised meats, this shallow casserole excels at a wide range of cooking techniques. The large, flat base and shallow sides create the perfect environment for browning meat, sautéing vegetables, or creating crisp-crusted pies.

Whether cooking on the hob or in oven, the exceptional heat distribution and retention ensure consistent, professional results.

Technical Excellence

This 30cm shallow casserole offers a generous 3.2L capacity, ideal for serving 4-6 people. It's compatible with all heat sources, including induction, and is both oven and grill safe.

While dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended to preserve its beautiful finish.

Heritage of Quality

Each casserole is individually crafted in France using time-honoured techniques and premium materials. The result is a versatile cooking vessel that performs efficiently at low to medium temperatures while keeping food warm long after cooking.

Backed by Le Creuset's lifetime warranty, this casserole represents an investment in culinary excellence that will be treasured for generations.

From stovetop to table, this iconic piece delivers exceptional versatility and professional-grade performance, combining Le Creuset's legendary quality with modern innovation.

Useful info...

Avoid metal utensils

We recommend using a Le Creuset Silicone Spatula or wooden tools, to avoid damaging the surface.

Use the right hob ring

Your food will cook more evenly if you use the right sized hob right for your casserole dish. On induction, your casserole may not be recognised if you don't!

Cook on low or medium heat

Let the casserole dish heat up gradually to ensure maximum flavour in food that is cooked evenly. Always lower the temperature when possible.

Before first use

Remove all labels. Wash in hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. The enamelled cooking surface is ready to use and requires no further preparation.

After use

Always cool for a few minutes before washing in hot soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Do not fill with cold water or plunge into cold water, as thermal shock damage to the enamel may occur.

If there are food residues, fill with warm water and leave to soak for 15 - 20 minutes, then wash in the usual way. Nylon or soft abrasive pads or brushes can be used to remove stubborn residues. Do not use metallic pads, or harsh abrasive cleaning agents as these will damage the enamel and polished trims.

Black enamel cooking surfaces will, over time, produce a patina (a brownish film). Do not attempt to clean this off as it enhances the cooking performance and food release from this surface.

Dry well after washing and store in a dry place.

If your desired country is not listed (USA, Australia etc.) this is most likely because couriers charge by "Volumetric Weight" i.e. a combination of how large and how heavy the package is. Just give us a call on 01737 222996 with the details of your order - we will advise the shipping costs within 24 hours and ask if you want to proceed.

Please note that any overseas shipment is at your own risk and you will hence need to take out insurance to cover any damage in transit.

Customs forms for all international packages list the value of the contents as well as a description of the items. Any customs or import duties levied once the package reaches your country must be borne by you. Your local customs office will be able to provide you with further information.

Click and Collect

You can collect your order from one of our shops in Cobham or Reigate, or our warehouse in Redhill.

If, when checking out, your closest shop does not appear, but others do, it just means that your shop is out of stock. Give us a call and we can arrange to have your chosen items transferred from another location.
