The same technology is used by Futura to make Hard Anodised Cookware. The Hard Anodised surface is harder than steel with wonderful properties for cooking. 4.06 Extra Thick Heavy Gauge The 4.06 mm extra thick base and sides of the Cook-n-Serve Bowl spread heat evenly and retain warmth for a long time - making it an excellent utensil for both cooking and serving. Food tends to not burn or stick on the hard anodised extra thick base. Cook with Less Oil The 4.06 mm extra thick hard anodised base allows you to use less oil for more healthful cooking. High-Gloss Exterior Finish The exterior surface of the bowl is polished so that you can place the dish on your table with pride. Properly used, the Cook-n-Serve bowl will stay looking new for years. Wash with mild soap and warm water- do not wash in a dishwasher! Metal-Ladle Friendly The protective hard anodised surface is stronger than steel. So you may use metal ladles for cooking in the Futura Hard Anodised Cook-n-Serve Bowl with complete peace of mind. Well-Fitting Lid The well-fitting, snug-fit lid helps retain heat/steam effectively and locks in the flavours. It also keeps the food hot for a longer time when served on the table. Uniquely Designed Lid Handle The lid handle is uniquely designed - it is long enough to accommodate the thumb and fingers comfortably when gripped. The handle base flares outwards to minimise the chances of your fingers coming into contact with the hot metal lid during cooking Firmly Fixed Stay-Cool Handles The handles are firmly fixed with strong rivets to the extra-thick body and wont come off or wobble. Designed to stay cool and be comfortable to hold. Heat Sources The Cook-n-Serve Bowl is suitable for domestic gas, electric, ceramic and halogen cooktops.

Review: Very good - Very nice. Good Thickness. Though they claim hard anodized is not nonstick, it can be very much nonstick if you know how to use it. and you can use metal spoons with no worry.

Just like our old system of cooking in black earthen pot. The layer is NOT entirely non sticky but it is oil repellent. The bottom is hard and distributes the heat evenly. If proper care is taken, the biryani can be cooked to perfection and nothing will stick to the bottom. **Q: Can it boil 12 hrs soaked in water chole as quick as hawkins pressure cooker** A: Cooking in this Pot can't be compared with Pressure Cooker. Pressure cooker cooks the food under pressure which increases the temperature inside the cooker for quicker cooking. **Q: Does this product come with a lid** A: Yes **Q: What is the diameter of the induction base area? So that I can find out if it will fit into my induction.** A: 8 inches ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product *by V***. on 15 March 2026* Great quality, thick bottom, heavy and looks amazing in the kitchen. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good *by R***A on 8 June 2025* Very nice. Good Thickness. Though they claim hard anodized is not nonstick, it can be very much nonstick if you know how to use it. and you can use metal spoons with no worry. I expect this to last a very long time. Using it past 2 years and no complaints. It is a little pricey though. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent build quality and stylish look! *by A***L on 1 January 2026* This Hawkins Futura 6-litre bowl is quite good for cooking. Its biggest advantage is that it is as sturdy as it is beautiful, making it perfect for serving directly on the dining table. It heats up food very quickly and evenly. However, keep in mind that the handles get quite hot during cooking, so you must use a cloth or oven mitts. Additionally, the bowl is somewhat heavy, which proves its durability. I am giving it 4 stars because the price could have been a bit lower, but there is no doubt about the quality. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hawkins Futura 2 Litre Cook n Serve Bowl, Hard Anodised Saucepan with Hard Anodised Lid, Sauce Pan for Cooking and Serving, Black (ACB20), Aluminium - Hawkins Futura 4 Litre Cook n Serve Bowl, Hard Anodised Saucepan with Hard Anodised Lid, Sauce Pan for Cooking and Serving, Black (ACB40), Aluminium - Hawkins Futura 6 Litre Cook n Serve Bowl, Hard Anodised Saucepan with Hard Anodised Lid, Sauce Pan for Cooking and Serving, Black (ACB60) (Aluminium) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/64775899-futura-2-litre-cook-n-serve-bowl-hard-anodised-saucepan](https://www.desertcart.us/products/64775899-futura-2-litre-cook-n-serve-bowl-hard-anodised-saucepan) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
