Then what, steak?
Actually I have a creuset casserole dish, I guess that’s cast iron. It has an enamel coating though so is easy to clean
what’s the difference between iron and cast iron
Cast iron is an alloy. Iron iron isn’t.
Apologies if this was the setup to a hilarious iron joke.

Have got one and seasoning it properly was such a ballache and I haven’t done it right so it hardly ever gets used
One of those things that a certain kind of man bangs on about on reddit or imgur or those types of places and is now tainted by association.

i’m not sure i’ve done it properly
I’ve definitely ballsed mine up as it hasn’t got the unlimited non-stick power I was promised.
Might give it another go and report back.
that bad boy was born to make fritatta
I put my diced pots in it with the hot oil - browned them off a bit on the hob, then put the whole lot in the oven to cook them through - then on the hob again for the rest of the ingredients, then back under the grill to finish off
no sticking or nothing
yeah. I do cuts of meat in it. so steak, fish, chicken etc
though apparently they’re amazing for cooking loads of other stuff, but idk i think i need to season it better first?
how do you clean it tim
