One Pan. Two Surfaces. Endless Possibilities — The Virtually Unbreakable Cast Iron Grill & Griddle for Every Indian Kitchen
If you've ever wanted a single pan that does it all — from crispy dosas and soft pancakes to BBQ-style grilled vegetables and meats — the Futura Reinforced Cast Iron Grill n Griddle (22cm) is exactly what you've been looking for. This innovative 2-in-1 tava with 2 surfaces gives you a smooth flat griddle side for dosa, pancakes, and tortillas, and a ridged grill side for BBQ-style meats, fish, and veggies — all in one single, beautifully crafted piece of cast iron cookware. Made from a special grade of reinforced cast iron, this tava is engineered to be virtually unbreakable — so tough and sturdy that, as Futura puts it, even your maid cannot ruin it.
Unlike modern nonstick pans that deteriorate with high heat and metal utensils, this cast iron tava actually thrives on high heat. Once hot, it retains heat exceptionally well and cooks fast and evenly across both surfaces — and high heat will simply never ruin the surface. There is no coating of any kind — no PTFE, no PFAS, no chemicals — just pure, natural cast iron with vegetable oil seasoning. This means every meal you cook is completely free from synthetic coatings and chemical residues, making it one of the healthiest cookware choices available today.
This tava comes pre-seasoned with vegetable oil and is ready to use straight out of the box — no prep work needed. It works on both gas and induction cooktops, making it versatile for any kitchen setup. A pair of silicone mitts is included to help you handle this heavy, heat-retaining pan safely. The 10-Year Guarantee from Futura by Hawkins Cookers Ltd. is a testament to just how seriously this pan is built — this is not just cookware, it is a generational kitchen investment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What does "2-in-1, 1 Tava, 2 Surfaces" mean? It means this is a single cast iron tava with two different cooking surfaces — one on each side. The smooth flat side (griddle) is ideal for dosa, pancakes, and tortillas, while the ridged side (grill) is designed for BBQ-style grilling of meats, fish, and vegetables. Simply flip the pan to switch between uses.
Q2. Is this pan truly free of nonstick coating? Yes, completely. This pan has no PTFE, no PFAS, and no synthetic coatings of any kind. The only treatment is natural vegetable oil seasoning, making it one of the most chemical-free and health-safe cookware options available today.
Q3. Does the pan come pre-seasoned? Do I need to do anything before using it? Yes, it comes factory pre-seasoned with vegetable oil and is ready to use straight out of the box. However, it is recommended to do a light seasoning before first use for best results. With regular use and seasoning, the natural non-stick property of the surface will improve over time.
Q4. Can I use this pan on an induction cooktop? Yes. This tava is compatible with both gas stoves and induction cooktops, making it a versatile option for any kitchen.
Q5. Can I use high heat with this pan? Absolutely. This is one of the key advantages of cast iron — it handles high heat exceptionally well. Unlike nonstick pans, the surface will never be damaged or degraded by high heat, and it actually retains and distributes heat more efficiently once it has reached cooking temperature.
Q6. Will this pan rust? Cast iron can rust if left wet or improperly stored. However, with regular seasoning with vegetable oil after washing, this pan will not rust and will maintain its surface quality for years. Always dry it thoroughly after washing and apply a thin coat of oil before storing.
Q7. How do I clean this cast iron tava? This pan is hand wash only. Wash with warm water and a soft brush or cloth — avoid soap where possible as it can strip the seasoning. Do not soak in water. Dry immediately and apply a thin layer of vegetable oil before storing to maintain the seasoning.
Q8. What is "Reinforced Cast Iron" and how is it different from regular cast iron? Futura's Reinforced Cast Iron is made from a special grade of cast iron that is engineered to be significantly stronger and more durable than standard cast iron, making it virtually unbreakable under normal cooking conditions — even with rough daily use.
Q9. What dishes can I cook on this pan? On the griddle side: dosa, uttapam, pancakes, parathas, and tortillas. On the grill side: BBQ-style meats, chicken, fish, paneer, and grilled vegetables like capsicum, zucchini, and asparagus — any food where you want those classic char grill marks and smoky flavour.
Q10. What guarantee does this product come with? This tava is backed by an outstanding 10-Year Guarantee from Futura by Hawkins Cookers Ltd., covering the product against manufacturing defects — a reflection of the extraordinary durability and build quality of reinforced cast iron cookware.
💡 Pro Tip: For the best grill marks and authentic BBQ flavour, preheat the grill side on medium flame for 3-4 minutes before placing your food. Cast iron takes a little longer to heat up but holds heat far better than any other cookware — once hot, it delivers restaurant-quality results every single time!
