[It's aluminium Haldi
That's a worry then
How dangerous is aluminium?
They still make aluminium pans don't they?
At a couple of places I go to they put the curries into foil containers.
They're made of aluminium too, aren't they?

don't look too deep into this one - even beer barrels

on the positive side i believe the medical evidence is still not convincing either way

follow CA's link in the following post for the wok hey (www.npr.org link takes u to the video)

http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php?topic=1918.0

i followed this method although i used chives. it worked fine upto changing my cooking technique ie changing tom puree to a runny paste - now there's no point.

Well, I got a chance to cook with this pan and it's absolutely brilliant.
Nothing burns (unless you did something really silly)
I heated some curry gravy oil in it and the aroma was amazing!!
I followed a recipe I had been given for a spicy hot lentil curry
It turned out as good as was cooked for me!!!
Very pleased

Haldi,

Excellent news - this sounds very promising for me as i've felt for a while i could get more mileage out of my stove if i could sort the burning issue (which i've done by way of sticking plaster in adding more water than i'd ideally like to the tom puree).

i intend to buy a pukka ali pan when i next pass the Asian supermarket.

Hi guys,

Currently been using a small wok around 9" to cook my curry's in which I brought from an Indian grocers and I think its great, but I also have quite a nice aluminium pan from there to and im thinking about giving it a go.  However I was wondering does an aluminium pan need seasoning?  If so is it the same procedure as a wok i.e. burning oil onto it?

Cheers
