Introduction
Futura Hard Anodised Cookware
Futura Hard Anodised Cookware is made from heavy gauge, pure,
virgin aluminium for fast and even heat conduction and hard anodised
to give you a tough surface that will not pit, tarnish or corrode and will
stay looking new for years. Futura Hard Anodised Cookware comes in
many useful shapes and sizes to suit your different cooking needs. All
pans are well-balanced with sturdy, stay-cool handles.
Futura Hard Anodised Tava (Griddle)
There are six models of the Futura Hard Anodised Tava (Griddle) – in
various sizes and thicknesses and two different handles. These six tava
are illustrated overleaf, page 2. The size and thickness of the tava is
stamped on the underside of the tava.
The sizes of different roti (Indian flat breads) recommended for each
size of tava are given on page 3.
Using this Manual
This Manual contains instructions and 10 recipes for all models of
the Futura Hard Anodised Tava (Griddle).
Eight of the 10 recipes are various kinds of Indian flat bread or roti .
Each of these recipes gives a choice of the sizes of roti which can be
made. Once the roti size to be made is chosen, follow the measurements
for that size roti throughout the recipe.
The two recipes which require multiple pieces of food to be cooked
in batches recommend the maximum pieces of food to be cooked at
one time.
Each recipe gives the suggested pre-heating time for each tava size;
choose the pre-heating time given for your size of tava. Other than the
pre-heating times, the heat settings in the recipes are those used for the
26 cm tava. The 22 cm and 24 cm tava may require slightly lower heat
and the 28 cm tava slightly higher heat to achieve the same cooking
times in the recipes – depending on the volume and size of the food
being cooked. For best cooking results, adjust heat so that the cooking
times are the same as those given in the recipes.
Your tava will give you years of easy, great-tasting, healthful,
economical cooking and easy clean-up if you carefully follow the
instructions in this Manual.
