Hawkins Aluminium 1.5 Litre Classic Pressure Cooker,Best Inner Lid Cooker,Small Cooker,Silver(Cl15)

Good gualityFast cook timeA little too noisy lolBut overall good 😊

Nice item. Very helpful when there is a small gathering and have to cook food. The capacity is very high. It helps save time and also keeps the same taste. Easy to clean.

Used it 5 times. 6th time onwards it’s been leaking the pressure and burns the food. It’s a really bad product. Waste of time and money both.

Very useful

I got this to use on my small propane cooker, primarily for truck trips, I like it, it works well for making basic simple camp meals, 3/4 cups of rice and fish (tilapia from the pond) cut in small chunks with broccoli/ cauliflower cooked up in about 3mins. We have a bigger older pressure cooker we use often but its too big an heavy to take on road trips. Mind u its not something you would hook onto your pack for dismounted hikes but for truck camping and making meals in the barn it works great. The manual that comes with it is also impressive, very thorough with parts break down illustrations, detailed illustrated instructions and recipes, its all well articulated not like some of the poorly translated single page made in China instructions (honestly I rarely ever read instructions being a man :) this P cooker is worth if it for sure if you need to cook quickly using minor amounts of fuel. Just for giggles I used it on a rocket stove (solo cooker) yep it worked you have to be careful to balance it correctly and it can be frustrating too add fuel but it will work. Also works on camp white gas stoves and propane for those that are taking care of fundamental readiness preps. I did not experience any of the fouled vent issues and yea the pot changed color who cares its a pot, albeit a well manufactured piece of kit.

Absolutely love this pressure cooker! It’s sturdy, well-built, and cooks food faster and more evenly than my old one. The lid locks securely, and the safety features give me peace of mind while cooking. Perfect for making dals, rice, stews, and even one-pot meals. Easy to clean and looks great in the kitchen too. Definitely a great value for the price , highly recommend!

Amazon can increase its selection of shippable pressure cookers. It’s a good value and I e used it successfully but the design leaves much to be desired. Compare it to Vinod pressure cooker design. This Hawkins: is a good size ( I would not buy anything smaller if you want to get a good pressure inside the cooker) but the lid design is strange and takes awhile to practice with. The top of the cooker is curved in so stacking containers inside is insanely tricky coupled with the way the lid has to be fitted in. Almost impossible to fit 2 containers inside. I purchased it when traveling and it does the job with the high pressure cooking needs plus it’s lightweight yet strong enough to pressure cook. Plus is it’s lightweight enough to put inside a suitcase and travel .

The media could not be loaded. I am very happy with this pressure cooker! Soaked peas/beans cook within 2 to 3 minutes after pressure builds. I've done red kidney beans (regular and small), chick peas, black beans, yellow split peas, and field peas (which are really beans). All dry.Soak peas/beans overnight with a pinch of baking soda. Put beans in cooker with the soaking water. The amount of water depends on how you're going to prepare the beans after pressure cooking. Fill to no more than halfway if the peas tend to foam (like split peas); up to two thirds with others like kidney beans.Put the lid on without the valve/weight. When it starts to boil (vapor and steam should be coming out of the center vent only and not around the edges. **If steam/vapor is coming out around the edges, turn flame off, remove cover, check that the seal is properly seated, and replace the cover.**Put the weight on, reduce flame to low (not as low as simmer) and set a timer (I use 1 and 1/2 minutes for small peas and 2 and 1/2 mins for larger ones like chick peas.)When the time is up, turn off flame and leave the cooker on the hot burner to cool down on its own. The beans will continue to cook. By the time it's cool enough to remove the weight and the cover, the beans are fully cooked.For the small cooker I have, that's about 12 minutes with a flame on.I've also cooked smoked pork neck bones in 20 mins vs the 40 mins and more that I saw in some recipes.I've seen at least one review complaining about having to stick the cover down into the cooker to open and cover it. With a few tries, I've managed to get it in at a minimal angle (see video. Sorry about the poor quality, I was recording with one hand and manipulating the cover with the other).
