Cook for a Crowd — the Moroccan Way

The Al Mohajer Couscoussier (12L / 28cm) is the largest and most generous size in the Al Mohajer range — built for big family gatherings, celebrations, and anyone who takes traditional Moroccan cooking seriously. With a 12-liter capacity and a wide 28cm diameter, this premium stainless steel two-tier steamer pot handles full couscous feasts with ease, delivering perfectly fluffy grains and tender vegetables every time.

When the whole family is coming over, this is the pot you reach for.

Key Benefits

• Authentic Two-Tier Steam System — The perforated upper steamer basket allows couscous to absorb steam from the simmering broth below, replicating the traditional Moroccan method for perfectly fluffy, flavor-infused grains every time.
• Premium Food-Grade Stainless Steel — Crafted from high-quality, rust-resistant stainless steel that won't leach chemicals, alter flavors, or degrade over time — even with heavy, frequent use.
• Extra-Large 12L / 28cm Capacity — Ideal for families of 8–12 and large gatherings, celebrations, and Eid meals. Cook a complete couscous feast — broth, vegetables, and grains — all in one pot.
• Healthy Steam Cooking — Steaming preserves up to 50% more vitamins and minerals compared to boiling, making this the healthiest way to cook vegetables, fish, and grains.
• Multi-Use Versatility — Beyond couscous, use it as a vegetable steamer, seafood pot, tamale cooker, or large stock pot. One investment, endless applications.
• Tempered Glass Lid — Monitor your cooking without releasing steam, maintaining consistent temperature and reducing cook time.
• Ergonomic Dual Handles — Heat-resistant, riveted handles on both tiers for safe, confident handling even when the pot is full and heavy.
• Compatible with All Cooktops — Works on gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops.
• Easy to Clean — Smooth stainless steel interior resists staining and food residue for effortless cleanup.

How It Works: The Traditional Two-Tier Steam Method

The Al Mohajer Couscoussier operates on a time-honored principle: steam rising from simmering broth or water in the lower pot passes through the perforated base of the upper steamer, gently cooking couscous, vegetables, or other ingredients above. This method — used in Moroccan households for generations — produces results that no microwave, rice cooker, or standard pot can replicate.

The result? Couscous grains that are light, separate, and deeply flavored. Vegetables that are tender yet vibrant. Seafood that is moist and perfectly cooked.

Ideal Use Cases

• Traditional Moroccan Couscous — The definitive Friday meal and celebration dish, prepared the right way.
• Large Family Gatherings & Eid Meals — The 12L capacity is made for feeding a crowd with generosity.
• Steamed Vegetables — Carrots, zucchini, turnips, cabbage, and chickpeas cooked to perfection alongside your broth.
• Seafood Steaming — Shrimp, fish fillets, and shellfish cooked gently without losing moisture or flavor.
• Mediterranean & Middle Eastern Dishes — Suitable for a wide range of regional cuisines that rely on steam cooking.
• Catering & Batch Cooking — The largest size in the range, ideal for professional-level home cooking and entertaining.
