How about the Remoska? I don't have one, but i think you can fry things in them and roast as well.

Matt,
We have something in common - I too have a Versalio and it is very good and versatile isn't it?

I have a Tefal Versalio. Never released properly in the Uk apart from the Ideal Home shows and some of the factory outlet shops. Its a cross between electric frying pan, fryer and warmer. Its brilliant and I use it all the time. They are like gold dust. If you are lucky enough to find one (ebay is the best) you will have to pay around £50+. Or go to Eastern Europe where they are sold in the shops.

They keep flogging similar pans to the tefal mentioned by Terrydox on QVC and Ideal World (both .co.uk) so you could give those a try also.

I have just been given my mother's frying pan and should be grateful if anyone could adivse of any recipes. I dont need full details just an idea of what it can be used to cook. My mind has gone completely blank. Many thanks

Hi Mary, it is good to see you posting again also.
This was one of those gadgets I always wanted but could never afford at the time they were popular. Like KoKo I would have thought they were no longer manufactured but then vaguely remembered seeing one advertised somewhere fairly recently.

Interestingly an electric frying pan is often part of the equipment supplied in self catering accommodation over here. I had never used one before but they are really good.
Hi TerryDox, nice to see you again.

Thanks TerryDox for the amazon info.
Widget - you may wish to have a look there also.
I sold both my frying pan and griller when I moved back to UK thinking I would pick new ones up cheaply and easily!!!
I used to use mine for roast potatoes, breakfasts and those really healthy (not) fry ups!

You could try www.amazon.co.uk they have a Tefal gourmet multi cooker and a Prestige A La Carte Electric 28cm Non-stick cooker.

I do not think so KoKo1162 - I have seen them around. Well in my country anyway!

I am looking for one too, Koko1162 if you find one please tell us where?

My electric frying pans are alive and kicking - fab for use when you've got a saucepan on all other available rings of the cooker and I've got two - one which is quite deep and ideal for doing bolognese, chilli, etc, and the other is shallow and ideal for paella or kedgeree.

I will tell you what happened to mine. It is on top of the kitchen cupboard collecting dust! Family got smaller so became too much of a bother to clean everytime. Only get it down when I am having a 'do' to use an extra pot or pan!

I'll tell you what happened to mine! It is at the top of the kitchen cupboard collecting dust! The family got smaller and it became too much of a bother to clean. Now I just use smaller pots and pans.
Only when I have a 'do' do I get it down as an extra cooking utensil.
