Trying to find Tawa. H4ppy Chris says he uses plain steel one and water makes the naan stick so he can invert it.  So is it a "non stick" pan as I can only find steel pans with non stick coating or Cast iron.

cast iron your best bet
Your correct the water will make it stick
so do not use a non stick pan because obviously you want it to stick  :o

Yep I made the mistake of buying a non stick Tawa :( but all I do is flip my Naan breads on the pan and they come out just fine 8)

Yep do not use non-stick unless you want a nice mess on top of your hob :o
I use a heavy old frypan , it has a really thick bottom that holds the heat in and when spun over the heat inside the pan is amazing due to the sides, it weighs 1.6kg(ish)


P.S I just looked at the bottom of the pan and it did use to be non-stick !

Top Tip -  If your pan is non-stick just allow your wife to cook with the said pan on a couple of occasions and Hey Presto, one non-stick pan!!  ;)

When my wife cooks with any pan I throw it out.

Hi livo,
you can use the side of a large saucepan or pressure cooker as shown here



Or use the base of a large frying pan...after a thorough scrub.  ;)

The inside of the fry pan works better than the base IMO, the heat is very good when the pan is spun over to cook the top of the naans

Of course. But I thought livo only owns or can find non stick.

Ah I see , my apologies DP, I miss-interpreted the post , yes the bottom of a (cleaned) fry pan would work  :)

Yes, I'm trying to find a plain steel one here in Oz but all I can find is Non-stick variety or cast iron. I know cast will be OK but it is heavy and will take a lot of heat for a few bread at a time.

I forgot to mention that I experimented with my Pizza Cooker.  It is an electric unit in flying saucer shape with a stone on the bottom and an exposed element on top.  I must say it works pretty well.
