Exploring the world of cooking comes with passion. Be it the cookware or the recipe – the search continues. Happy to share with you one such encounter in this exploration. Life gets easy with click of a button! Cooking gets easy with Versatil clasp on! Choosing the right cookware makes cooking hassle free and enjoyable. One such definite choice of mine is Stahl Versatil Multi Pressure Cooker!
I am very excited to share the review of one of my most favorite brand Stahl the 30+ year brand which excels in design, quality and user centric cookwares. I already have a collection of Stahl cookwares and the Xpress Cooker and I absolutely love using them in my kitchen.
The Versatil works as a pressure cooker, pan and serveware. It comes with a glass lid that can be used for cooking, steaming and serving. The pressure lid comes with a double safety mechanism to ensure the most enjoyable and safe cooking experience.
Versatil comes in 2 sizes : 3L which serves 2-3 and 5L serving 4-6. As the name Versatil – the cooker can be used for multipurpose which works as a pressure cooker, cookware and a serveware.
The Versatil Pressure Cooker is designed to be a product that is the future of pressure cooking. It comes with a clasp-on lid that is easy to operate and a breeze to cook with. Made with the finest quality triply, the pressure cooker is fast, safe and an absolute beauty.
This cooker is great to make rice, upma, curries, gravies, one pot dishes, soups, biryani, pulao and many more such dishes.

To be true I haven’t personally used any other clip on cookers but when this model was first introduced as usual I was just researching the model in shops / online though I had no idea of buying it. That is when I had a have a glance of it in my neighbours house and came to know that she was not satisfied with the model. So when I got an opportunity to review Versatil I was a little hesitant but when they told me to write a honest review I readily accepted it.
There may be many of you with a question there are other clip on cookers available in the market Why Stahl? and here is the answer:
The clasp on mechanism on the lid makes the lid a bit heavier however it is not a setback. Given the easiness of the clasp on, the heaviness is not a factor to consider at all.
It comes well packed in a cardboard box with necessary safety measures. The glass lid is placed securely in the cooker and clasp on lid has a seperate cardbox inside. Even the cooker weight is placed seperately inside a small cardboard box.
For the first time use, rinse it well then wash in soap water atleast twice and wash it. Then dry it and and your cookware is all set for cooking.
The package includes a versatil pressure pan along with clasp on lid, glass lid and cooker weight. The pan has a beautiful dull finish inside and mirror finish look on the exterior with bakelit handles on both the sides. The glass lid has a steel rim on the edges and a bakelit on the top.
This was such a surprise for me to see Sharmis Passions beautifully engraved on the cooker. This is my first personalised piece of cookware that I have received. Thank you Stahl for this!
During my initial days when I started cooking I found cooker handling particularly opening and closing of the lid difficult and am sure everyone could have come experienced it. With this Stahl Versatil clasp on, beginners in cooking will feel cooking a breeze and joy.
The cooker can be easily converted into a cookware by using the glass lid. I used it for making popcorn and as it has a heavy base it was perfect for popping corn. Deep frying can also be done as the base is flat the frying is even.
I used a small steel stand below, added water and placed my idli stand to steam idlis. I have been using it as a idiyappam, momos and kozhakattai steamer too.
Perfect for cooking rice dishes like biryani, pulao, one pot dishes or curries or gravies or everyday stir fries too.
Final word : I have been loving the cooker ever since I started using it. As it is a multicooker one piece of cookware is just enough in your kitchen to carry out all your basic cooking. Apart from its looks, ease of cooking I am pretty sure they will last a lifetime and a pure joy to use. So go ahead buy yours and happy cooking! Versatil Clasp on do not tug of war.

Kadai Paneer is a great sidedish for chapathi roti made with paneer cooked in tomato based gravy along with onion, capsicum and freshly grinded spices. Kadai Paneer Recipe with step by step pictures for easy understanding and reference. Kadai Paneer can be made either with gravy or dry, I have shared 3 versions of kadai paneer recipe here.
Kadai paneer is one the popular dishes at many restaurants or hotels.
This Kadai Paneer is uniquely flavoured with freshly ground masala making it stand apart from the regular paneer dishes. This can be made 2 ways semi dry and gravy. Both the versions tastes great which I have already posted. This is a smoked version of kadai paneer as we taste in restaurants.
This can be made in a number of ways. Here is an easy version I often make at home mostly for dinner which hubby and kids love it.
Kadai Paneer is a simple fragrant gravy made with paneer, capsicum and onion tomato base along with a freshly ground spice mix. The dish gets its name as it is made in a special indian wok called kadai. Kadai is one of the basic kitchen essential cookware in any Indian kitchen. Though you can cook kadai paneer is pans also kadai is the best option.
To begin with first marinade paneer with the basic spice powders. Toast the paneer and set aside. Next add capsicum, onion, toast for 2 mins then set aside.
First in a kadai dry roast coriander seeds with red chillies until its aromatic, remove then add onion, tomato saute until mushy. Add sauted onion, tomato along with coriander, red chillies and grind it to a fine paste along with required water. Heat oil – temper jeera, add ginger garlc paste saute for a minute then add the paste boil it along with salt. Boil for few mins then add roasted onion, capsicum and paneer. Mix it then add fresh, kasoori methi and coriander leaves. Place a bowl with smoked charcoal, add ghee to it and close tightly with lid. Open and your flavourful smoked kadai paneer is ready!
Kadai masala is made by grinding a special spice mix which has red chillies and coriander. I used kashmiri red chillies to get a vibrant and appetizing color. Roasting and grinding the spices gives it a nice flavour and taste to the gravy. Usually coriander seeds and red chillies are grind seperately but this time I roasted and added it along with onion tomato, it was not only easy but the paste was smooth adding more taste to the gravy too. This masala is so flavourful that you need not add garama masala too.

Kadai Paneer is a a spicy tomato based sidedish for chapathi or even rice.This is the easiest paneer recipe that I make when I want to make a quick fix for lunch or dinner.I am fond of trying out new paneer dishes because I’m bored of trying the same PB masala so this recipe is my latest addiction.
I have updated the recipe and the pics with stepwise as few readers had requested for it long back.One fine lazy afternoon, googled to find out other paneer recipes and this kadai paneer caught my eye, and set out to try it. It turned out to be a hit at home. Paneer cooked in tomato coriander sauce simmed in a kadai – do u need any other tempting description?!
Ingredients
Kadai Paneer Gravy is my most favorite, its absolutely delicious the juicy paneer with the crunchy onion and capsicum…yummmm.
Most of the times when I am left to order for just myself at restaurants I would blindly go in for Naan and Kadai Paneer Masala yes that my most favorite combo. Rice, Dal, Phulka and Kadai Paneer Gravy fixed the special lunch for us.
