Product Information
Full details
The Russell Hobbs Cote 24 cm Frying Pan in Cream is designed for everyday home cooks seeking a durable, lightweight, and stylish addition to their kitchen. Its key benefit is a toxin-free ceramic non-stick coating that enables healthier cooking with less oil and easy food release. A potential consideration is its 24 cm size, which may be too small for very large family portions, though it's ideal for typical family meals. Key features include its lightweight forged aluminum construction for even heat distribution, a straight-sided design for increased capacity, and a comfortable soft-touch handle. It is also compatible with all hob types, including induction.

FAQs
Is the ceramic non-stick coating safe?
Yes, the ceramic non-stick coating is free from harmful toxins such as PFOA and PFAS, making it a healthier choice for cooking.
Can I use this frying pan on an induction hob?
Absolutely. This pan is designed to be compatible with all hob types, including induction, electric, gas, halogen, and ceramic.
What is the best way to clean the pan?
We recommend hand washing with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners and metal utensils to protect the non-stick surface.
How should I store the pan to protect the non-stick coating?
To prevent scratches, avoid stacking other cookware directly inside the pan. Using pan protectors or hanging the pan are good storage solutions.
What are the dimensions of the frying pan?
The frying pan has a diameter of 24 cm.
Can I put this pan in the dishwasher?
While the pan might be dishwasher safe, hand washing is highly recommended to preserve the integrity and longevity of the ceramic non-stick coating.
What material is the pan made from?
The pan is crafted from forged aluminum for excellent heat distribution and durability.
Troubleshooting
Food sticking to the surface
Ensure the pan is adequately preheated before adding food. Use a small amount of cooking oil or fat. Check that you are not using metal utensils or abrasive cleaning materials that could have damaged the coating.
Uneven cooking or hot spots
Verify that the hob setting is appropriate for the task. Ensure the pan is placed centrally on the hob burner. For induction, confirm the pan is centered on the induction zone.
Handle feels loose
Check if the handle fixing is still secure. If it has become loose, do not use the pan and contact customer support.
Pan appears discolored
Discoloration, especially on the exterior, can occur from overheating or certain cleaning agents. Usually, this is cosmetic and does not affect performance. Clean with mild soap and water.

Care and Maintenance:
- Washing: Hand wash recommended using a soft cloth or sponge and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh scouring pads, as these can damage the non-stick coating.
- Cleaning: For stubborn residue, soak the pan in warm water for a short period before washing. Do not use metal utensils (knives, forks, whisks) directly in the pan; use silicone, nylon, or wooden utensils instead.
