Ancient Cookware, Indian Clay Curry Pot, Medium, 8 Inch, 1.5 Quarts Terracotta

First of all I got this pot for the health benefits of cooking in a unglazed clay pot. This pot is small, which is fine if I'm cooking for one or two people. The lid is married to the pot beautifully! It's thick so I'm not all that afraid of it cracking as I heat it up very slowly. The food taste great!!! The only bad thing about this pot is it will mold if it isn't stored without the top on. Curing took about 4 days. I believe it is well worth the money I paid for it. I just have to learn how to cook in unglazed clay pots.

Great utensil to use and cooking food in it has an awesome taste. The food cooked in it serves three people

The media could not be loaded. Do not buy this pot. It blasted and I got oil all over my face and neck. I got burn by a hot oil. Plz do not buy this. Firstly the order said it was deliver to me on 28th of June but I did not received. They forgot to tell me where they left. After I contacted the seller, I received and email saying I have parcel on the 30th of June. Today is July 2nd and I decided to use it but not even in a minute it just blew on my face. It is not safe.

One of the handles is warped and a bit ugly, but not bad enough to warrant a return. Just poor quality control. No cracks or major damage.

I recieved a pot with crack on one of its handle. It this something serious?

I am updating my initial review. This clay pot eventually started working. I think it takes a while to season. It probably takes a month or two of cooking before it starts working like a nice non stick pan. It also takes some getting used to. But once it starts working, it makes the best tasting dishes! This pot is very light weight, very easy to clean and very easy to cook. Unlike non stick pans, it holds heat.You just have to figure out how to season it. I still do not know how and when this pot started working properly !!! (it stopped leaking oil too)!!! Now I love this pot so much, I even forgot I left a negative review! I was surprised to see my own review. This pot is awesome. I highly recommend it.—- ** Initial review from Dec 2019 **——This pot did not work for me . I seasoned it so many times and I really want to cook in this pot. But when I put oil in for sauteing, it leaks from the bottom. IS that supposed to happen? In the end I gave up on this pot and switched to cast iron pans. May be I dont know how to cook in these mud pots. Its a pain to get them not to stick at the bottom and then it starts leaking oil? I dont know whats going on with this pot... It is entirely possible that I do not know how to use this pot. But it should not be this difficult to use. And its too expensive for a little pot. I recommend you use cast iron pots and pans - they are way cheaper and works much better.

This is excellent. I liked it and it gives me that very own INDIAN traditional feeling when you use this. Much better rich in flavour when you cook ur curry in this pot when you compare it with the regular nonstick pans.

We bought this 2 years ago and used it regularly. It still is in great shape. Food tastes really good when cooked in this. A slight limitation is that it takes long to cook in this. Overall, we are very happy with the purchase.
