A tava(h) / tawa(h) (mainly on the Indian subcontinent), saj (in Arabic), sac (in Turkish), and other variations and combinations thereof, [clarification needed] is a metal-made cooking utensil.[1] The tawa is round and can be flat, but more commonly has a curved profile, and while the concave side can be used as a wok or frying pan, the convex side is used for cooking flatbreads and pancakes.[1][2]
The Indian tawa might have a handle or not, and it can be made of cast iron or aluminium,[1] or of carbon steel.[3] The utensil may be enameled or given a non-stick surface.[4][5] The tawa and saj are used in the cuisines of South,[1] Central, and West Asia, as well as of the Caucasus and the Balkans. The tawa is also used in Indo-Caribbean cuisine.[6]
