Cast iron cookware for everyday Indian cooking
Cast iron holds heat steadily, making it a dependable choice for crisp dosas, shallow frying, searing and everyday curries. A cast iron tawa gives you a broad cooking surface for rotis and dosas, while a cast iron kadai is suited to sabzis, curries and frying.
SOLARA cast iron cookware is pre-seasoned with vegetable oil so it is ready to use after the recommended first wash. Regular care is simple: dry the cookware after washing and apply a light coat of oil before storing it. Over time, regular seasoning helps maintain the cooking surface.
Use the collection to compare tawas, kadais, fry pans and paniyaram pans, then choose the size that fits the way you cook. Delivery options across India, cash on delivery, EMI and warranty support are available on eligible orders.
Cast iron — frequently asked questions
Why choose cast iron cookware?
Cast iron is valued for its durability and heat retention. With regular seasoning and care, a cast iron tawa, kadai or fry pan develops a naturally slick cooking surface and can be used for years of everyday cooking.
What does pre-seasoned cast iron mean?
Pre-seasoned means the pan comes with baked-on layers of vegetable oil, so it is ready to use out of the box. With regular cooking and a light coat of oil after washing, the seasoning deepens into a natural non-stick surface.
How do I clean and maintain cast iron?
Rinse with warm water while the pan is still warm, scrub with a soft brush (mild soap is fine occasionally), dry completely on the stove, and wipe on a thin layer of oil. Avoid soaking it in water or putting it in a dishwasher — moisture is what causes rust.
Does cast iron work on induction cooktops?
Yes. Cast iron is naturally ferromagnetic, so SOLARA kadais, tawas and skillets work on induction as well as gas stoves and open flame.
Which cast iron kadai size should I buy?
For a family of 3–4, a 10-inch kadai handles everyday sabzis and curries; go 12-inch if you often cook for guests. For dosas and rotis, a 12-inch tawa gives comfortable spreading room.
