Nigella's Cookware

Our answer

Nigella only uses a black frying pan and this is the Alessi Mami frying pan. The pan is non-stick and comes in four sizes. It is available on-line and in some cookware stores. This is the pan that Nigella uses in Nigellissima for toasting pecan nuts. The green cast iron pan is a Le Creuset shallow casserole pan (sometimes called a buffet casserole or braiser). Le Creuset tend to change their colour lines regularly and we understand that the jade green version may no longer be available, but they have the same pan in several other colours.

Nigella's copper pan is a copper tarte tatin pan (hence it doesn't have handles). Nigella's pan is made by Mauviel and again can be bought on-line or in several cookware stores. Unfortunately as it is copper it is slightly expensive, though should last a lifetime. Hoerver there are many metal tart tatin pans that are also available and these would be just as good for Nigella's Roasted Duck Legs And Potatoes, Toad In The Hole (both from Kitchen), and many other dishes.
