During the time I’ve spent in online Indian cooking communities, one question comes up time and time again – which pan is best for cooking Indian curries? 

The answer I give people most often is that you can cook Indian food with whatever pots and pans you have in your house.

However, do good specialist pans make a difference to your cooking? Absolutely. 

If you cook Indian food regularly and have just a little money to invest, then good cookware will make it much easier for you to get consistently great results with much less effort. 

These are the essentials I can’t live without:
