Le Creuset Cast Iron Tarte Tatin Oven Dish, 25cm, Volcanic

This round-shaped dish has inverted cast iron handles to flip the dish easily when you've finished making the famous French upside-down apple tart or tarte tatin. The shallow shape of the dish produces a lovely browned crust while leaving the food beneath moist. For the best results, this dish allows you to caramelise the fruit on the hob first, before adding the pastry to the top and then baking it in the oven, all in one dish.

The dish fits easily under a grill or in the top of an oven when you are still cooking a meal and need space to keep finished dishes warm. Use it for making sweet and savoury quiches, pizza, pies, tarts, gratins, cakes and crumbles. It's also suitable for roasting and because it's made of cast iron with a smooth enamelled base, it can be put directly on top of the hob for sautéing or de-glazing sauces.

The exceptionally durable enamel finish is very easy to clean and resists chipping, staining and dulling over the life of the cookware.

Made in France and available in Le Creuset's original, timeless and iconic Volcanic colour, it looks beautiful and stylish when serving at the table and comes with a lifetime guarantee.
