I dont know why I expected this to be bigger when the measurements are right there. Depth wise it is much less than a pot. Obviously. But the fact its non stick all over is the best part. Ive cooked Bacon, cauliflower, toast, eggs, numerous kinds of noodles and ramen, dumplings and various other ingredients. It wont fit a whole curry. And can only comfortably handle one pack of ramen. Two is tight. So I couldnt recomend this as the replacement for a families wok etc. For one person alone however, its the best thing. The pouring points are great too. I will be purchasing one of the 22cm to accompany this one. Amazing.
