A frying skillet is a flat-bottomed pan designed for frying, searing, sautéing, and browning foods. In simple terms, it’s a versatile kitchen essential that allows Australians to cook everything from eggs and pancakes to steaks and stir-fries with ease. Skillets typically have slightly sloped or straight sides and a long handle, making them perfect for tossing and flipping ingredients.
The main reason Australians love frying skillets is their versatility—they can be used on stovetops, in ovens, and even over campfires for a wide range of cooking tasks.
Frying skillets vary by material, size, and design to suit different cooking preferences:
Coated with a non-stick surface for easy cooking and cleaning
Ideal for eggs, pancakes, and delicate foods
Durable, corrosion-resistant, and suitable for high-heat cooking
Excellent for searing meats and deglazing
Heavy-duty, retains heat well, and can go from stovetop to oven
Develops a natural non-stick seasoning over time
Scratch-resistant, lightweight, and evenly distributes heat
Popular for everyday home cooking
Small skillets (20–24cm) for individual portions
Medium skillets (26–28cm) for family meals
Large skillets (30cm+) for entertaining or batch cooking
Selecting the right skillet depends on your cooking style, maintenance preference, and kitchen setup:
Non-stick: Easy to clean, low-fat cooking
Cast iron: Long-lasting, excellent heat retention
Stainless steel: Durable, versatile, and ideal for browning
Consider the number of people you usually cook for.
Look for ergonomic, heat-resistant handles for safety and ease of use.
Cast iron and stainless steel skillets often allow oven use; non-stick may have temperature limits.
Cast iron requires seasoning and careful cleaning
Non-stick should avoid metal utensils to prolong life
Stainless steel can be cleaned with standard dishwashing methods
