You can buy the iron karai vindaloo has in 'taj stores' in brick lane, london. I recently got a 12" one for ?9. I have used it once for a thai curry but i can already see that it's gonna be v useful. It holds the heat well.

Hi,

You can purchase them online here http://www.spicesofindia.co.uk/acatalog/Indian-Food-Balti-Dish-Set-1.html
Pretty sure you dont want to use them. They look pure stainless steel, which is a bad cooking medium as it's a bad conductor of heat. You'd burn your ingredients quickly due to hot-spots.
They are decoration and are not meant to be cooked in. The iron ones are what you're after. I found some in brick lane (london) cheap. They must sell them in birmingham & manchester too. I got a 12" one for ?9 so i guess the single portion ones are about half the price.
