This 5L 'family sized' roasting pan is ideal for roasting larger cuts of meat, poultry or vegetables, baking casseroles or lasagnes. 'XD' is Swiss Diamond's latest non-stick surface, incorporating years of research and development in perfecting a durable non-stick surface containing 20% more diamond than the 'HD' range. The diamond reinforced surface and cast aluminium body results in a pan with fantastic release properties and even heat retention - with this pan, you can brown meats in the pan on the stove before transferring to the oven. Perhaps diamonds are a chefs best friend?
