The Pigeon Favourite 3L Pressure Cooker is a practical aluminium cooker designed for straightforward everyday cooking on conventional gas stoves. Its three-litre capacity provides useful room for rice, dal, vegetables, curries and other routine meals while remaining compact enough for small and medium-sized households. The exact Nikshan model 12098 combines an aluminium body with an outer-lid design and non-induction base, making it a simple choice for kitchens that primarily use LPG or gas cooking. Customers can view the exact Pigeon Favourite 3L product page or browse Nikshan Electronics’ pressure cooker collection for other sizes and materials.
Pigeon Favourite 3L Pressure Cooker
The three-litre capacity makes this Favourite cooker especially suitable for everyday meal quantities rather than bulk cooking.
It provides enough room for common preparations such as rice, lentils, vegetables, curries and one-pot dishes while remaining easier to handle and store than larger five- or seven-litre pressure cookers.
Nikshan’s exact listing confirms a 3-litre capacity, aluminium body and outer lid for model 12098.
Users should always maintain adequate empty space inside the vessel for steam formation and should avoid overfilling, especially when cooking rice, pulses or ingredients that expand during cooking.
Aluminium Construction
The cooker is made from aluminium, a material widely used in conventional pressure cookers because of its good thermal conductivity.
Aluminium responds quickly to changes in burner temperature and distributes heat across the cooking body efficiently, supporting practical everyday pressure cooking.
The comparatively manageable weight also makes the cooker convenient to lift, wash and store after regular household use.
For best maintenance, the cooker should be cleaned after use and dried before storage. Harsh abrasive tools can affect the exterior finish over time.
The exact aluminium alloy grade is not stated on Nikshan’s current exact listing, so more specific metallurgical claims should be avoided unless printed on the carton.
Outer-Lid Design
The exact Nikshan product is an outer-lid pressure cooker.
With this configuration, the lid sits over the rim of the cooker body before being secured for pressure cooking.
Outer-lid designs are commonly used for compact and family-sized aluminium cookers and provide a wide vessel opening for adding ingredients and cleaning after use.
Before heating, users should check that the lid is properly positioned and that the steam outlet is unobstructed.
The cooker should never be forced open while internal pressure remains.
Non-Induction Gas-Stove Base
This exact model is listed as non-induction and should therefore be marketed for gas-stove use rather than induction cooking.
That distinction is important because Pigeon sells other pressure cookers with induction-ready bases, but those specifications should not be transferred to model 12098.
When used on a gas stove, the flame should remain mainly beneath the base rather than extending around the cooker body toward the handles.
Customers who need induction compatibility can compare alternative models in Nikshan’s pressure cooker range.
Ergonomic Bakelite Handle
Current exact-model retail information specifies an ergonomic Bakelite handle.
Bakelite is commonly used for pressure-cooker handles because it offers useful resistance to cooking heat and provides a firm surface for everyday handling.
Even so, users should prevent direct gas flames from reaching the handle.
Any loose, cracked or damaged handle component should be repaired or replaced before the cooker is used again.
The cooker itself weighs approximately 1.1 kg according to Nikshan’s current product specification, supporting relatively convenient handling for its three-litre capacity.
Four Levels of Safety
Current exact-model market information positions the Favourite 3L with four levels of safety and ISI certification.
For accurate publishing, “four levels of safety” is preferable to inventing four exact components when Stovekraft’s currently indexed product information does not individually document them for model 12098.
Pressure-cooker safety also depends on correct user practices.
Users should keep the vent system clean, ensure sufficient cooking liquid, inspect the gasket and pressure components regularly, and allow pressure to fall before attempting to open the lid.
Nikshan’s pressure cooker safety guide offers additional practical guidance for everyday use.
ISI Certified Pressure Cooker
Current exact-model retail information identifies the Favourite 3L as ISI certified.
ISI certification provides an additional product-quality and safety reference for customers choosing a pressure cooker for regular household use.
Certification should still be combined with correct operation, scheduled replacement of worn sealing components and adherence to the supplied instruction manual.
Customers comparing various pressure-cooker designs can also read Nikshan’s pressure cooker buying and safety guide before choosing a capacity, material or base type.
Compact 3 Litre Family Capacity
The three-litre size offers a useful balance between cooking room and everyday convenience.
It is particularly practical for couples, smaller households or kitchens that need a secondary cooker for individual dishes such as rice or dal.
Although it can prepare a range of foods, actual serving quantity depends on the recipe and safe filling level, so fixed serving-count claims are best avoided.
Pressure cooking can reduce cooking times for many ingredients compared with open-pot cooking, although actual fuel savings vary with recipe, quantity and burner setting.
