If you fancy yourself as a bit of a Martha Stewart in the kitchen, you’ll know that owning a Le Creuset dish is a rite of passage to adulthood.

The brightly coloured dishes have been ranked as arbiters of middle-class style and have become some of the most coveted kitchen items in the world.

But at £185 for a 120cm cast iron casserole dish, they do not come cheap.

Luckily, Aldi has brought back its hugely successful dupe for only £24.99 and it is available in chic new colours.

The budget supermarket has relaunched its cast iron cookware range for its second year after it completely sold out in 2018.

Prices ranges from £3.49 for the stoneware mini assortment to £24.99 for the cast iron casserole dish.

The range is also available in three colours, including new Country Blue and Modern Grey.

If you’re not huge on cooking casseroles, there is a cast iron skillet for £14.99, cast iron sauce pan for £14.99 and a cast iron roaster for £19.99, as well as a cast iron grill tray for £14.99.

Each item in the range is suitable for all types of heat sources, including gas, electric, induction hobs and solid fuel cookers.

Many cooks and chefs swear by cast iron cookware because of their reliability and and longevity as well as their unparalleled ability to retain and distribute heat.

Cast iron also has the ability to absorb everything cooked over time, which adds flavouring and seasoning to your pan, and as long as you care for your skillet or pan, food will not stick to cast iron.

The Aldi Cast Iron Cookwares range is available to preorder online from 8 September until they hit stores on 15 September.

But you’ll have to be quick; they are only available until stocks last and if last year’s success is anything to go by, we predict they will sell out in no time.
