Our take on the Pigeon Pressure Cooker

The Pigeon Pressure Cooker is a 3-liter aluminium stovetop cooker with an inner-lid design and a Bakelite handle. It works on induction as well as gas, so it fits modern and older kitchens alike. The 3-liter body suits two to three people or small batches of dal, rice and vegetables. Against steel rivals it heats faster and weighs less, but aluminium is softer and more prone to dents and staining over time.
