hi guys with my black steel pan rajver boss got me i have never had the problem or fear of burning. i now don't wash it just simply rinse with water then use a paper towel to dry it and when i am drying the rice out in the grill of the oven i leave the pan in to aid with the preheating normally about 100 degrees C but you have to be carefull when you get it out to use as the handle retains heat very well as does the pan. but i have a frying pan which i suspect is ali which picked up at boofair for 50p and that works very well and is more of 1 portion pan,
have just taken a piccy of the four pans i use the nearset on the right is the rajver pan as is the 1 behind it both black steel , back left is a smaller pan 8" an black steel but the handle needs straightening as i find it to high and gets in the way when stirring, the near left pan is the 1 i think is ali. and is easy to clean and does not rust.
regards
gary
