How to choose a frying pan

Cast iron skillets

Much of this range is cast iron, including skillets, grill pans and multi-piece sets. Cast iron holds heat well, so it is great for searing steak, cooking breakfast and baking cornbread. It works on gas, electric and induction cooktops, and many pans can go in the oven or over a campfire. The trade-off is weight, so check you are comfortable lifting it with one hand.

Non-stick pans

Non-stick frypans are easier for eggs, pancakes and fish, and need less oil. Use wooden or silicone utensils and medium heat to protect the coating. Check the product page for what the coating is made from.

Pick the right size

  • 20 cm suits one or two eggs and small serves.
  • 24 to 28 cm is the everyday size for most households.
  • 30 cm and up suits family cooking, but check it fits your largest burner.

Sets give you a few sizes at once, and grill pans add char lines for meat and vegetables.

Caring for cast iron

Wash with hot water and a brush, dry straight away, then rub in a thin layer of oil while it is warm. Avoid soaking it or putting it in the dishwasher, as that causes rust. Seasoning builds up with use and makes the surface more non-stick over time.

Price guide

Single pans start from about $34, with most around $100 to $120. Multi-piece cast iron sets sit at the higher end. Cast iron also suits the barbecue, and if you are upgrading your stove, see cooktops.

Frying Pans: common questions

Can I use a cast iron frying pan on induction?

Yes. Cast iron is magnetic, so it works on induction as well as gas and electric. Lift rather than slide it on glass cooktops to avoid scratches, and heat it up gradually.

Does a cast iron skillet need seasoning?

Some cast iron comes pre-seasoned, so check the product page. Either way, wiping a thin layer of oil on after each wash and heating it builds up the seasoning, which protects against rust and helps food release.

How do I clean a cast iron frypan?

Wash with hot water and a brush, using a little mild soap if needed. Dry it fully, ideally on the stove, then rub in a thin layer of oil. Don't soak it or put it in the dishwasher.

Will a cast iron pan rust?

It can if left wet or stored without oil. Dry it straight after washing and keep a light coat of oil on it. If rust spots appear, scrub them off, then re-season the pan in the oven.

Do the handles get hot?

Cast iron handles get very hot on the stove and in the oven, so use an oven mitt or a handle cover. Check the product page for the handle material and design before you buy.

What size frying pan is best for everyday cooking?

A 24 to 28 cm pan suits most households for eggs, meat and stir-fried veg. Add a small pan for single serves or a larger one for family meals, or buy a set to cover all three.

“Happy with the new shed-looks great, easy to put together good instructions relatively easy to follow. Removing the plastic film was very time consuming, in the end could not remove some of it. Quick delivery. We were 9 screws short, not a deal breaker, however made it awkward to finish. Very good shed.”
