## Description

## Key takeaways

Expanding from 7 inches to 11 inches in diameter, this Mritrit stainless steel steamer basket fits a range of pots, saucepans and pressure cookers. Its folding, petal-style design adjusts to the cookware you are using, while the compact shape makes it easy to store between meals. Use it to steam vegetables, fish, seafood, eggs or dumplings without needing a separate electric steamer.

The basket’s feet hold food above the boiling water, so ingredients cook in the steam rather than sitting in the water. That makes it a practical way to prepare a vegetable side or seafood alongside your usual cooking routine.

## Usage tips

Choose a pot or pan that allows the basket to sit securely, then add water below the level of the food. Expand the basket to suit the cookware and arrange ingredients inside without blocking the space needed for steam to circulate. Keep the handle accessible when placing the insert, and take care when lifting it, as steam and hot cookware can cause burns.

For care, hand wash with mild detergent and dry thoroughly with a cloth. The stainless steel construction and folding design make this a useful everyday piece for kitchens where storage space matters, including smaller home kitchens and shared cooking spaces.

## How to use it

Set the expandable basket inside a suitable pot, saucepan or pressure cooker, with its feet keeping the food above the water. Add ingredients such as broccoli, potatoes, asparagus, cauliflower, fish, eggs or dumplings, then cover the cookware with its own lid while cooking. The insert itself does not have a lid. Its removable, extendable handle helps with positioning in deeper pots and can be taken off to make room for larger items, such as corn on the cob.

For a simple meal, place vegetables in the basket while a sauce or another part of dinner cooks on the hob. The adjustable diameter lets you use cookware you already own rather than setting up a dedicated steamer appliance, when cooking is finished, fold the basket down for compact storage. Silicone-protected feet help keep the food above the water and protect the pot surface from scratches.

## Practical questions

**What size pots can the basket fit?** Its diameter adjusts from 7 inches to 11 inches, so it can be used with a range of pots, pans, saucepans and pressure cookers. Choose cookware that lets the basket sit securely with space for water beneath the food.

**Can I steam food other than vegetables?** Yes. It is suitable for steaming fish, seafood, eggs and dumplings as well as vegetables. Removing the handle also creates room for larger foods such as corn on the cob.

**How should I clean and store it?** Hand wash with mild detergent and dry thoroughly with a cloth. Once folded, the basket takes up less storage space than an expanded insert.

## Buying verdict

For cooks who want a flexible way to steam different foods using existing cookware, the Mritrit basket combines an adjustable 7–11 inch fit with a removable handle and folding storage. It is especially useful for everyday vegetable sides, fish and other steamed dishes when a compact insert suits the kitchen better than a separate steamer appliance.
