FAQs

Can I use this pan on an induction hob?

Please check your specific hob manufacturer's guidelines, as suitability depends on the base material's compatibility with induction technology.

Is the lid oven-safe?

This pan is designed primarily for stovetop frying. It is not recommended to place the pan or its lid in the oven.

How deep is the pan?

The pan is 20cm in diameter, providing sufficient depth to safely submerge standard frying portions of food.

Can I use metal tongs to turn food?

It is strongly advised to use silicone or nylon-tipped tongs to avoid scratching the interior non-stick coating.

How do I dispose of used cooking oil?

Allow the oil to cool completely, then pour it into a sealable container and dispose of it according to your local waste management regulations; never pour oil down the drain.

Troubleshooting

Food is sticking to the base

Ensure the oil has reached the proper temperature before adding ingredients and avoid using metal utensils that may have compromised the non-stick coating.

Pan feels unstable on the stovetop

Verify that the pan is centered on a burner of the correct size and check that the cooking surface is level.

Gold finish showing minor marks

Avoid using abrasive scouring pads when cleaning the exterior; use a soft microfiber cloth instead.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight design makes handling hot oil safer
  • Non-stick surface prevents food sticking and eases cleanup
  • Includes a lid to minimize oil splatter
  • Dishwasher-safe construction for stress-free maintenance
  • Compact 20cm size is ideal for home kitchens

Cons

  • Not suitable for large family-sized batches
  • Requires careful storage to prevent scratching the gold finish
  • Oil temperature must be monitored manually as it lacks an integrated thermometer

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before using your chip pan for the first time, wash it thoroughly with warm soapy water and a soft sponge to remove any manufacturing residue. When cooking, always ensure the pan is placed on a stable burner that matches its base size for even heat distribution. To protect the non-stick coating, avoid using metal utensils; instead, use silicone or wooden tools to stir your food. While the pan is dishwasher safe, hand washing with mild detergent is recommended to preserve the integrity of the gold finish over the long term. Never leave the pan unattended while the oil is heating, and always allow the oil to cool completely before attempting to move the pan or clean it.
