Preparation & How To Season The MS Black Iron Tawa must be prepared and seasoned before use. First clean the Tawa thoroughly to remove any manufacturers protective oil & rust, then dry completely. Now to season, heat the Tawa for a few minutes until its entire surface is hot. The first time you do this you may see parts of the black surface begin to peel away, this is fine as sometimes a protective layer is added by manufacturer for safe transit. With a cloth wipe on a thin layer of oil, then turn up the heat to burn it off, and let it cool down. It is essential not to let the oil pool in the bottom of the Tawa, as a thick gel can form in the base. Repeat this process building up at least half a dozen thin layers, burning in each layer before applying the next. Be careful when handling hot items. The Iron Tawa may have an uneven rustic look in parts which is quite normal. Cleaning Rinse the MS Black Iron Tawa with hot water. Gently lift off or scrub away food particles with a non metallic scrubber. Rinse. Dry the interior and exterior with paper towels. To finish drying, place over medium to high flame and 'burn', to steralise it ready for your next cooking session. It is best not to wash with detergents, as it will take away all your hard work with seasoning. Wipe the inside with a small amount of vegetable oil. This helps prevent rusting. [Note: this step may not be necessary if you properly seasoned and it gets a lot of use.] Store until ready to use again.

THIS IS A NON STICK PAN
Not what I was looking for. It has a non stick chemical coating treatment of some sort. Which is bad for health and behaves completely different to pure solid cast iron items. Very dissapointed. One star because I read other reviews saying this was 'the real mccoy' and 'cast iron'. But it is a non stick pan.

Tawa.
I’ve not used it yet as I’ve bought it to use in the Philippines, but I must say it looks good, and there is plenty of weight on it too.

Very nice, bit heavy depending on size
Very nice, bit heavy depending on size. It is best for ceramic and gas flame hobs. Needs proper wash when we receive the product but after that it is working nice.

Excellent sevice but unfortunately when using it the pancake sticks ...
It turned up broken and was replaced by the shop immediately. Excellent sevice but unfortunately when using it the pancake sticks so badly that it's impossible to use. Haven't tried making dosa yet but if it's the same It'll promptly go in the bin. Will go for a non stick next time!
