Frying pan advice please

...and ideally not as heavy as cast iron!!!

I had no idea frying pans cost that much. I go to M&S or Sainsbury's if I need one and they are much cheaper.

Look at Scoville Neverstick pans. I bought one of their sauté pans this year and it’s really very good. Dishwasher safe - easy to clean. They do a range of frying pans, including ones with an oven safe handle.

Thanks Greyduster I'm sure it works well as they have great reviews.

I'm looking for something PTFE free really though.

Their existing pans that they want to replace are not PTFE free and as far as I can tell neither are the Scoville, sadly.

Hexclad of you have the budget.

Scoville if not.

Try TKMaxx, they have really good bargains.

Have a look at Longwell - 28cm just under £60 and PTFE free

Stainless steel will go in the dishwasher. Several brands are available. Stella is good.

I would suggest you buy a good quality stainless steel frying-pan and make sure it can be used on induction, if they are likely to be moving.

I've found excellent ones at Lakeland. I like a lid on mine and theirs were the best. The non stick surface doesn't peel off like the Lidl one I had previously had.

I would second Stellar as an excellent brand but I get rid of a complete set of pans because they weren’t induction compatible. They may be different now.

Look in Lakeland if budget permits, otherwise IKEA pans are really good.
