pots and pans

nearlyrich

I have a 3 tier steamer which I bought from Argos many years ago it's perfect for cooking rice, potatoes and other vegetables. I also have a decent Tefal griddle pan and a cast iron griddle for steak etc, my other saucepans and wok are Tesco Value and I replace them as required.

You may be surprised to now that these pans are made in Liverpool by Meyer/Prestige! Also the KA Mincers and Slicer attachments are made in Germany. The problem is that KA is now owned by Whirlpool and a lot of the US users are now saying that the quality is way down on when it was owned by Hobart.

I got a great non stick frying pan from Wilkos which has seen good service, I would check out jumble sales for a bargain find if skint...:)

stainless steel from woolies, about £25,have glass lids with a steam vent., make sure the handles are firmly riveted on on cheaper pans. and a very large cast iron casserole dish bought for pennies from a car boot(had the pans too but found them too heavy to lift)

If my OH gave me pans for Xmas, no matter how beautiful, I'd hit him over the head with them :rotfl:

I know, I know but I've just starting to get into cooking thanks to the OS board and we are moving house so it would be a nice treat that we wouldn't normally buy! He's rubbish at presents anyway so I might as well tell him in the hopes of something decent! Otherwise I'll end up with a cup of tea and a kiss!!!!!:D
