Gerlach grill pan Granitex Ilag Xera Dur 28 cm — non-stick ridged frying pan

The Gerlach Granitex Ilag Xera Dur 28 cm grill pan is a ridged non-stick frying pan designed for indoor grilling of meats, vegetables and sandwiches. The 28 cm cooking surface distributes heat evenly and the Ilag Xera Dur non-stick coating helps prevent sticking and reduces the need for added fat, making preparation and cleaning more efficient. The raised ridges create grill marks and allow fats to drain away from food, while the solid construction ensures stable contact with the hob for consistent results.

Advantages

The non-stick Ilag Xera Dur coating resists abrasion and supports easy food release and cleaning. The ridged surface replicates outdoor grill marks and improves texture without requiring a separate grill. A 28 cm diameter provides a balance between cooking area and manoeuvrability on most stovetops. The pan’s materials ensure even heat distribution for uniform cooking and reduced hotspots.

Suitable for

• Grilling steaks, chicken, burgers and sausages indoors
• Cooking vegetables and halloumi with grilled texture
• Toasting sandwiches and paninis
• Everyday frying and searing on compatible stovetops

Key specifications

• Cooking surface diameter: 28 cm
• Ridged grilling surface for grill marks and fat drainage
• Non-stick coating: Ilag Xera Dur
• Suitable for use on compatible hobs (check hob compatibility before use)

How to use

Before first use, wash the pan with warm water and mild detergent, then dry thoroughly. Preheat the pan on a medium heat setting and add a small amount of oil if desired; the Ilag Xera Dur coating minimises sticking but a light coating of oil can improve searing and grill marks. Place food on the ridged surface and avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking. Use silicone, wooden or heat-resistant nylon utensils to protect the non-stick coating. After cooking, allow the pan to cool slightly before cleaning and avoid sudden temperature shocks.

Usage recommendations

To prolong the life of the Ilag Xera Dur non-stick surface, avoid metal utensils and abrasive scouring pads. Clean with a soft sponge and mild detergent, and store the pan carefully to prevent scratches. Check hob compatibility for induction use and follow manufacturer care instructions for best results.
