What Is a Kadai and How Do You Use It?
A kadai is the Indian subcontinent's answer to the wok: a rounded, deep-sided pan used for stir-frying, deep and shallow frying, simmering curries, and preparing biryani. The Utsava kadai's tri-ply clad body heats quickly and evenly, making it perfect for sautéed vegetables, rich curries, and crispy pakoras and snacks.
Kadai vs. Wok: What's the Difference?
A kadai has thicker, more vertical walls and a flatter base than a Chinese wok, holding more oil for frying and retaining heat for slow-simmered curries. A wok's steep sides suit fast tossing over a roaring flame. The covered Utsava kadai does both frying and simmering — with a lid the wok typically lacks.
Induction and Cooktop Compatibility
Yes — the tri-ply clad stainless steel construction includes a magnetic steel layer, making the Utsava kadai compatible with all cooktops, including induction, plus gas, electric, and ceramic.
