Designed and manufactured in France, the Tefal Rio Simply Chef Fry Pan 24cm is engineered for those seeking a balance of health and convenience in the kitchen. As a product from the world's leading cookware brand, it focuses on promoting healthy eating by utilizing a high-performance non-stick surface that requires minimal oil while preserving the nutritional value of your food. At the heart of its performance is the Resist Plus non-stick coating. This 'two-way coating' is applied to both the interior and exterior of the pan, which not only makes the surface scratch-resistant but also ensures a more even distribution of heat across the aluminium body. The coating is formulated with PTFE, an inert substance confirmed by health authorities to be safe for use in cookware, and is strictly PFOA-free. Ergonomics and safety are prioritized with a lightweight design and a specialized non-slip silicone thumb grip. This feature provides a secure hold, making the process of stirring and flipping food safer and more comfortable, even when the pan is hot. Versatility is key for the modern Sri Lankan kitchen; the Simply Chef Fry Pan is fully compatible with gas, electric, and ceramic hobs. To ensure the longevity of the non-stick surface, Tefal recommends using plastic or wooden utensils and avoiding direct cutting inside the pan. Beyond the pan itself, Tefal demonstrates a commitment to sustainability. The product is shipped in eco-friendly, recycled, and recyclable cardboard packaging, completely free from polystyrene and plastic bags.
