Saucepan Maestro MR-3505-16S stainless steel with lid for induction and gas 16 cm 1.25 L

Maestro MR-3505-16S stainless steel saucepan with lid is a compact 1.25 L pot designed for everyday cooking on induction and gas hobs. With a 16 cm diameter and stainless steel body, this saucepan provides uniform heat distribution and easy cleaning. It is suitable for small-portion cooking tasks such as boiling, simmering and preparing sauces, soups and side dishes in a home kitchen.

Advantages

The stainless steel construction ensures durability, resistance to staining and straightforward maintenance. The included lid retains heat and moisture for efficient simmering and faster cooking. Compatibility with both induction and gas cooktops makes the saucepan versatile for different kitchen setups. Its 16 cm size and 1.25 L capacity are practical for single servings or small family meals while keeping the pan lightweight and easy to handle.

Suitable for

• Boiling small amounts of water, vegetables or pasta
• Preparing sauces, gravies and reductions
• Cooking soups, porridges and single portions
• Reheating ready meals and defrosting frozen food

When it may not be suitable

This saucepan is compact and intended for small portions; it may not be suitable for large families or for cooking large quantities at once. For tasks that require very high-heat searing, a heavier, thicker-bottomed pan or a frying pan may perform better.

Key specifications

• Capacity: 1.25 litres
• Diameter: 16 cm
• Material: stainless steel body
• Suitable heat sources: induction and gas cooktops
• Includes: fitted lid

How to use

Before first use, wash the saucepan and lid in warm soapy water and dry thoroughly. Place the pan on a compatible induction or gas hob and add the required ingredients. Use medium to low heat for simmering sauces and soups to avoid sticking; increase heat for boiling when needed. Use wooden or silicone utensils to prevent surface marks. After use, allow the pan to cool slightly before washing; stainless steel is dishwasher-safe but hand washing helps preserve finish and prolong life.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended portion size — 1.25 L is best for single servings or small portions
• Cooktop compatibility — works on induction and gas surfaces
• Storage space — compact diameter fits small cabinets
• Preferable utensil types — avoid metal utensils to reduce scratches

Usage recommendations

To maintain even heating and avoid discoloration, heat the saucepan gradually and avoid sudden high temperatures. For easier cleaning, soak the pan after cooking and use a non-abrasive sponge when removing food residues.
