Non stick for a wok is just ridiculous, teflon burns far too easily.
If you're going to use a wok, get a steel one and learn how to season it!
Buying this just to throw it away in 6 months is horrible.

I don't know about the ins and outs of cookware. If the Stainless steel is only on the outside and the inside is non-stick coating, what difference does that have over other non-stick pans like this one from tefal: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tefal-Specifics-Stirfry-Stick-28cm/dp/B004D391NC?
I guess what I'm asking is, what does the stainless steel aspect add?[/quote]Like the DM, without backing it up without any real data, I am going to say the stainless steel outer basin is going to help dissipate the heat better on the non-stick interiors. 'Studies' suggest that pans coated with Teflon can give off unhealthy fumes when the pans are heated to medium and high temperatures. The contrast looks better!? maybe! Its a fiver and that's the biggest USP for me.[/quote]
Isn't it kinda defeating the purpose to have a pan that disappates heat well? It would surely be better to have a pan that retains heat so the food stays nice and hot

Interesting that simply heating the pan after washing could make it non stick. I wonder what's the science behind this...

How does this compare with Tefal?

Don't have a scientific answer to this. But going by know-how / hear say / personal preferences etc I believe Tefal has the lead over Prestige on non-stick cookware. I use both brands, for stainless steel pots and pans, Prestige is better.

Is this the new politically correct way of saying wok? We don't want to go hurting the feelings of kitchen ware now.

No. And calling a wok a wok isn't offensive. This isn't a wok, I believe it has a small flat base.
I got this message when ordering:
"Sorry, we don't have enough Prestige 26cm Non Stick Stir Fry Pan items in stock right now. This item (s) has been added to your save for later basket. You can try to purchase this item again by reducing its quantity."

I'm with you on that. A fiver will get you a good wok from any Chinese supermarket and then ask your local friendly takeaway to season it for you. Nothing will ever stick a

Exactly. I don't know why people get these pans. They corrode eventually into your food if you're not careful.
If its not carbon steel, cast iron or ceramic it won't last.
It's a false economy.

Nice' heat added - a lid would have been even nicer but never mind we can't have it all ways can we :smile:

Few things to consider when it comes to caring for you non-stick pans, squeeze a bit more out of it:
a) Avoid dishwasher - really over does the cleaning, high temp and harsh detergents
b) Avoid obvious things like metal scourers to scrub and steel utensils on the pan while cooking
c) Avoid dunking a piping hot pan into water, some claim rapid cooling adds to the stress on the coating
d) Always soak a rested pan in warm/hot tap water and wash with mild detergent
if you intend to stretch it further, look-up on 'seasoning' non-stick pans, or just come back to HUKD and find a replacement deal. :smiley:

Bought an Asda stainless steel wok without non-stick and have to use to much oil to not stick.Steel wok works great though with little oil.

I had to google that, and by other comments I think the context would be more apt for yourself by even saying it.

I've got the 10" frying pan in this range - and it cooks OK on induction, plus easy to clean - after one month it's a bit discoloured. I only paid £5 when Homebase were selling them off.

Had this as part of a set and the non-stick lasted about 6 months, all peeled off. Can't grumble for a fiver though.

thanks ordered 2 as I think with any pan the longevity is a bit optimistic.

I have other pans in this range, and yes they stainless steel but it's very thin and the non stick will not last very long - especially if you use the dishwasher
