Petromax 30cm Cast Iron Fire Skillet
Made of high-quality cast iron the Petromax FP30 Skillet is said to be the ultimate versatile pan and perfect for creating meals over the open fire, at home over electric, induction, gas and even in the oven.
The benefits of a high-quality cast iron skillet are numerous, from outstanding heat distribution, heat retention, durability and easy to clean thanks to the pre-seasoned surface.
On that subject, with regular seasoning my FP30 has improved with each use, not just its non-stick ability, but everything simply tastes better, from a lump of steak to roast potatoes.
The FT30 as 2.5 litre capacity and measures 30cm diameter, and the high side make it useful for stews or pasta dishes that are smothered in tomato sauce. Of course, being cast-iron it weighs in at a hefty 3.7 kg, and that’s before food, so it certainly gives your forearms a good workout!
When it comes to carrying and manoeuvring, thankfully FP30 has one traditional pan handle with another small handle on the opposite side, so that it can be held and carried securely.
One thing to mention is that both handles can become incredibly hot, so either use a handle cover or heatproof gloves.
The FP30 comes in two guises, as I mentioned above with one main handle and a smaller one, or with just two smaller handles, which I suspect is easier to store in the back of your 4x4 or camper van cupboard.
Whichever one you choose, with care and attention, you can pretty much guarantee it will outlast you, and probably whoever you leave it to!
