Frying pan needed!

grandmasam

I hope someone can help me, I have tried several frying pans, the latest being a ceramic one. However, whether I use olive or sunflower oil and even tried lard [! ] Eggs still stick, potatoes don't crisp, and omelettes are falling apart when I try to take them out of the pan, [no, they won't slide out onto the plate! ]
I don't cook on a high heat,the cooker is gas/

What sort of pan do you use?
Thank you

Tefal pans are great

I find the Tefal non stick pans sold in Asda are as good as the very expensive ones sold in places like John Lewis. The secret seems to be to get them fsirly hot before adding a little coooking oil and then frying the food.

I also vote tefal. Had mine 8 years and it still as good as when I bought it.

I think the one I used was a Tefal, the one with the Red Spot....

I have Tefal, red spot, never had a problem cooking anything in them ever.

My Tefal pans have lasted years and I've now bought Tefal oven dishes too.
Argos selling tefal frying pans less than half price at the moment

Approx 3 years ago we installed an induction hob....mad panic as Shrove Tuesday was approaching, and had no frying pan suitable for the hob.

Daughter popped into Ikea and bought a £10 non stick jobbie to see us through Pancake Day - it's been really good and have no immediate plans to replace it.

Always use tefal red spot and never had a problem

However they don't last a lifetime if not looked after and that means no detergent or scourers. Just wipe out the inside with paper and wash and carbon deposits off the out side And never ever use metal implements on them

I've had a tefal red spot ten years, no flaking of the non-stick, I'd recommend them.
