The Le Creuset 3-ply Stainless Steel Non-Stick Omelette Pan is a genuine all-rounder, equally at home with an omelette as with any other everyday frying job. Premium grade stainless steel and aluminium are bonded together in three layers, spreading heat evenly and gently through the whole pan for fast, consistent cooking. The non-stick coating releases food easily, so you can cook with little to no added fat, and it is robust enough to resist the use of metal utensils.

Care
- Before first use: Wash in warm, soapy water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
- While cooking: Use Le Creuset silicone, wood or heat-resistant plastic tools where possible. Metal utensils can be used with care, but avoid scraping or knocking them on the rim. Never use hand-held electric beaters, blenders, knives or sharp tools inside the pan.
- Fat-free cooking: Preheat on medium heat for around 2 minutes before adding food. Don't leave the pan unattended or let the dry surface overheat.
- Induction hobs: Avoid the 'boost' function, which is intended for rapidly heating large volumes of water rather than cooking.
- Glass hobs: Never slide the pan across a glass-topped hob, as this can damage both the base and the glass. Always lift it on, off, or across the surface.
- Oven use: Place on a shelf or rack rather than the oven floor, which can increase cooking temperature and lead to damage.
- Washing: We recommend handwashing rather than the dishwasher, to help the non-stick surface last longer. Cool the pan for a few minutes before cleaning, and avoid plunging it into cold water while hot.
