NON STICK FRYING PANS

We have a set of Tefals, inherited when one of our offspring got an induction hob. We always love it when they upgrade. smile The pans have been great - we started off carefully washing them by hand, but soon stopped that nonsense.

Jamie Oliver frying pans are very robust.

I have Tefal non-stick pans that haven’t stayed the course, and have bought a couple that, despite saying they are suitable for induction hobs, will only work on certain rings which are usually the ones I don’t want to use. I have an omelette pan that I bought in a hardware store in Bakewell and, like Kittylester, a sort of semi-wok that I got from Aldi. Both have proved to be excellent.

I love this one, 6 months after I bought the first I bought another in case they disappeared, the original is still going strong after four years.

Swan Retro pans have a non-stick ceramic coating. I've been really pleased with mine - DH bought me the set of 3 saucepans and 2 frying pans - they're really easy to clean. The only drawback is that you probably have to buy the whole set.

Make sure they are chemical free, cheap pans have toxins in them that leach into the food.

Google it for more info.

I wanted another 'occasional use' one and spotted one in Aldi's aisle of shame for £10.00 so bought it. It's really good.

Unfortunately HexClad are made in China. Berghoff, which I have, manufacture in Belgium.

The best are Hexclad but brace yourself……..they don’t come cheap.

I have some Berghoff frying pans and saucepans which are very good. They are expensive but always having sales, which I took advantage of.

Can anyone recommend which ones to get, please?
I bought a set of 3 rated No.1 by Which magazine and 3 years on, all the food sticks like crazy to the pan unless I first tip loads of oil in.
Such a waste of money all round, and the same had happened with the pans I used before these
