The Secret to Authentic Flavor
Elevate your cooking with the Copper Handi with Lid from Sama Homes. Handcrafted sustainably using traditional techniques, this pot is more than just cookware—it's an heirloom.
Copper has been used in Indian kitchens for centuries because of its excellent thermal conductivity. It spreads heat rapidly and evenly, allowing you to cook delicate dishes like Biryani and rich gravies without them sticking to the bottom.
✨ Safety First: Traditional Kalai
We honor the traditional method of Tin Coating (Kalai). This natural, non-reactive interior lining creates a barrier between the copper and your food, preventing any metallic taste or reaction with acidic ingredients (like tomatoes, vinegar, or lemon).
🌿 Sustainable & Durable
Unlike non-stick pans that wear out, a copper handi can last a lifetime. It is handcrafted by skilled artisans using eco-friendly methods, supporting traditional livelihoods.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the copper handi safe for cooking?
Yes! The handi has a Tin coating (Kalai) that creates a non-reactive surface, making it completely safe for cooking all types of food, including acidic curries.
Can I use it on an induction stove?
No. Pure copper is non-magnetic and will not work on induction cooktops. It is designed for Gas Stoves or Electric Coils.
How do I clean the handi?
Exterior (Copper): Clean with lemon and salt to restore shine. Interior (Tin): Use a soft sponge and mild soap. Avoid abrasive steel wool on the inside to protect the lining.
Can I serve food in this?
Absolutely. The Copper Handi is arguably the most beautiful serving dish for Indian food. It keeps the food warm for longer on the dining table.
