A kazan or qazan is a large cooking pot used throughout Central Asia, Kazakhstan, Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Turkey, and the Balkan Peninsula, roughly equivalent to a cauldron, boiler, or Dutch oven. They come in a variety of sizes (small modern cooking pots are sometimes referred to as kazans), and are often measured by their capacity, such as "a 50-litre kazan".
