Preservation / Storage Instructions
Do not leave salty, acidic or oily food residue in the pan for prolonged periods. After use, allow it to cool, wash and dry it completely.
Store in a clean, dry utensil rack or cabinet. Avoid stacking very heavy cookware directly on top of it, which may deform the lightweight aluminium body.
Cleaning Instructions
Allow the tadka pan to cool before washing. Use mild dishwashing liquid and a soft sponge.
If spices or oil residue become stuck, soak briefly in warm soapy water before cleaning rather than scraping aggressively.
Rinse thoroughly and dry completely. Avoid steel wool, strong abrasive powders and harsh chemical cleaners.
