I use this for my base gravy (10 ltr) and am very pleased,it has markings on the inside which is handy when you need to add a certain amount of water following a boil up  ;)

I use a "Sonex" brand one, 7 litres to the brim, made in Pakistan I think.

Cooked curry gravy in it loads of times and never had problems with sticking.

Aluminium with riveted on stainless steel handles either side.

Only cost about 12 quid from local asian shop, and will probably outlast me!

And don't use non stick pans if you plan to use a hand blender I know the blade is held well off the bottom of the pan but the down force pressure is amazing and I even managed to knacker my Teflon with the plastic pan blender attachment so it's stainless for me not non stick

I use this it has a lid as well  Image hosting by CR0.co.uk

 I have had this for around 6 years got it from my local Asian store think it was about 12 GBP.
Best thing to try is an Asian superstore where are you based PaulP?

Hi UF,

I'm in north Liverpool so no Asian shops nearby unfortunately. To be honest I'm not looking for a new stock pot just yet and I might go for a large aluminium pressure cooker next time just to speed things up.

Cheers,

Paul
