Cast Iron Tawa 30cm — Dosa, Roti & Paratha

A cast iron dosa tawa holds heat far better than aluminium or non-stick, which is exactly why dosas crisp instead of steam. Ours are pre-seasoned with food-grade flaxseed oil, so they are ready to cook from the first use and get more non-stick every time you cook. Both our tawas are 30cm (12″), the standard full-size dosa tawa. Pick the two-loop tawa for storage and even lifting, or the tawa with handle if you like a long grip for rotis.

Cast Iron Kadai 20cm & 25cm — Deep Frying & Iron-Rich Curries

Cooking in a cast iron kadai naturally adds dietary iron to your food — one of the simplest ways to support iron intake in vegetarian diets. The heavy base means oil holds its temperature when you drop in pakoras, so food fries instead of soaking. Available in 20cm (8″) and 25cm (10″): the 20cm kadai suits two to three people, the 25cm kadai a family of four to five. Shop cast iron kadai by size →

Cast Iron Fry Pan & Skillet — 20cm, 25cm, 30cm

Cast iron retains heat roughly 4× longer than steel, which is what gives you a real crust on paneer, chicken and tikkis. Our cast iron skillets come in 20cm, 25cm and 30cm (8″, 10″, 12″) and are oven-safe to 260°C, so you can sear on the hob and finish in the oven. Shop cast iron fry pans by size →

Cast Iron Paniyaram, Appe & 4 Pit Pan

The cast iron paniyaram pan (also called an appe pan, paddu pan or gundpongalu pan) has 12 deep cavities that brown evenly and release cleanly once seasoned. The 4 Pit Pan is the wider-pit cousin for thick uttapam, mini pancakes and egg pits. Shop paniyaram & pit pans →

Cast Iron Combo Sets & Gift Packs

Combos are where the best cast iron offers live — a three-piece set costs roughly what two pieces cost separately, which is why they are also our most popular cast iron gift set for housewarmings and weddings. Every combo is on this page in the All Cast Iron Combos & Sets row, and you can build a custom one with the combo builder for an automatic 7–12% off.

BlackForge vs CrownStone — Which Cast Iron Should You Buy?

BlackForge is traditional pre-seasoned cast iron with a matte cast finish — rugged, heavier, and built for daily Indian cooking. CrownStone is machine-lathed to a mirror-smooth interior with a stay-cool Sheesham wood handle — lighter in the hand, easier to clean, and the better cast iron gift. Both are 100% pure iron with zero coating; the difference is finish and feel, not safety.

Is Cast Iron Cookware Good for Health?

Yes — it is one of the safest cooking surfaces there is. There is no non-stick coating to scratch off, so there is nothing to leach: no PFOA, PFAS, PTFE or Teflon. Instead, cooking in cast iron transfers small, useful amounts of dietary iron into your food, which is why it is often recommended for iron deficiency and anaemia-conscious cooking. Our cast iron is lab-tested for composition — the report is on this page under the lab proof section.

Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron & How to Care for It

Every SOLARA piece ships pre-seasoned with multiple baked-on coats of food-grade flaxseed oil, so there is no week-long seasoning ritual before you cook. To keep it: wash with warm water (a little mild soap is fine), dry it fully on the flame, then wipe a few drops of any cooking oil over the surface. Do that and cast iron does not rust — it just gets blacker, smoother and more non-stick. Works on induction, gas, halogen and ceramic hobs and is oven-safe to 260°C.

Triply Pressure Cooker & Pressure Pan

Cast iron is not for everything — pressure cooking needs steel. Our SeetiPro Triply Pressure Cooker (from Rs. 2,599, in 2L, 3L and 5L) and DumMatic Triply Pressure Pan (2L, 3L) are full-body triply stainless steel — steel inside, aluminium core, steel outside — so no aluminium touches your food. Both are induction and gas ready. Shop triply cookers & pressure pans →

Cast Iron Cookware — Frequently Asked Questions

Which is the best cast iron cookware brand in India?

SOLARA’s BlackForge and CrownStone ranges are among India’s best-rated, with 11,000+ verified buyers and a 4.8/5 average. Both are 100% pure iron, pre-seasoned and independently lab-tested for iron composition.

What is the price of cast iron cookware in India?

In this sale, single pieces start at Rs. 1,099 and combo sets run from about ₹1,799 to Rs. 4,499 for the full kitchen set. See the price bands above for what fits each budget.

Which cast iron tawa is best for dosa?

A wide, flat 12″ tawa. The BlackForge Cast Iron Tawa with two loops is our best seller for dosa specifically, because the flat surface and edge-to-edge heat let batter spread thin without sticking.

Is cast iron better than non-stick?

For searing, frying and longevity, yes. Non-stick coatings wear out in two to three years and must be replaced; cast iron improves with age and lasts generations. Cast iron also has no synthetic coating to flake into food.

Does cast iron work on induction?

Yes. Iron is naturally magnetic, so cast iron works on every induction hob, plus gas, halogen and ceramic, and is oven-safe to 260°C.

Is cast iron heavy and hard to maintain?

It is heavier than aluminium — that weight is what stores heat. Maintenance is one habit: dry it on the flame and wipe with oil after washing. Our CrownStone range is machine-lathed and optimised to be lighter if weight is a concern.

Which size cast iron tawa or kadai should I buy?

For a family of four, a 30cm cast iron tawa and a 25cm cast iron kadai cover almost everything. For one or two people, drop to a 20cm kadai or 20cm fry pan. See the size guide above.

Is SOLARA cast iron toxin-free and naturally non-stick?

Yes. It is 100% pure cast iron with no chemical coating — no PFOA, PFAS, PTFE or Teflon — and it is pre-seasoned with food-grade oil, so it is naturally non-stick from the first use and gets more so with every meal.

Do you deliver cast iron across India, with COD?

Yes — free shipping across India, typically 3–5 days, with cash on delivery available.
