 Heavy but becoming essential equipment May 18, 2008

Don't know about how you meaties cook, but my interest in this pan was purely in reducing the fat content of an occasional indulgence in fried vegetables. I snapped one up when it hit half price and after 3 days I'm still very happy with it. It is heavy though- and because it doesn't have a long handle I found it really difficult to pick up when it was hot- I'm used to a Le Creuset frying pan so it's really just how the centre of gravity works out that makes it awkward to pick up one handed. I stuck to just using the handle to adjust the position over the hob and letting it cool completely before I moved it.
It does take a little time to season the pan. My cooking strategy is an adoption of what you would do on a barbecue- smear the side you're cooking with oil lightly applied with a pastry brush. When you put the veg down you do have to lift it a little with a fork after say 10 seconds to make sure that it doesn't stick to the grill line. I'm still learning really.
My other half was very impressed with the taste of aubergines, mushrooms and cherry tomatoes- he said they were far more flavoursome - much less masked by the taste of the oil. I liked cooking with a square pan for a change- everything seemed to fit in so much better. You do get a fairly high production of fumes though - so whack up the extractor or open a window before you cook.
I'm also very pleased that the colour near enough matched my other blue Le Creuset pans.

this 'Chasseur' Grill-Pan (Poeles-Grill) which is ideal for the even more healthy cooking of meat, fish and vegetables with the ribbed base giving those impressive seared char-grilled markings!
Complete with a cast handle, it is suitable for all heat sources, and an assist handle aids balanced lifting but.... don't forget your oven gloves!
Dishwasher safe but just as easy to wash up by hand following the care instructions booklet supplied, which also includes a recipe idea for each product range.
Guaranteed 10 years.
Also available in a rectangular option and in a choice of colours, at Amazon, today.
