what is the best lid to buy for this frypan?

To get a lid that fits both pans, buy T-fal Nonstick Cookware with Glass Lid A9108263, 5-Quart which is a great pan to use for many dishes, including stir-fry and braising recipes (up to 350F in oven).

Cook's rated this pan their #1 but, no lid. They recommend the Poderno SS model #11061-32 but it costs more than the pan. Second choice is half the price, Norpro SS pan cover model #609 but they say it is flimsy. Myself, I invert a dinner plate, seems to work just fine.

If you need a model with a lid, I'd recommend buying a different model pan. Example: T-fal E91898 Ultimate Hard Anodized Nonstick Thermo-Spot Heat Indicator Deep Saute Pan Fry Pan with Glass Lid Cookware, 12-Inch, Gray (Which is basically this product, in a different shape, with a lid included)

I purchased the "Universal Glass Quicklids Pot Lid with Cool-touch Knob, Large" specifically for use with this 12.5" T-Fal skillet and I am happy with its performance. The unique concave design of that lid means that it will work equally well with other, smaller pots and pans (i.e. if the lid is too large then any condensation will go back into the pot/pan rather than dripping out onto the stove).

My Nordic Ware lid ("Tempered Glass Lid Size: 2.88" H x 12.38" W x 12.38" D") is as close to 12-3/8" as I can measure. It just fits the T-fal pan listed below. "T-fal E93808 Professional Total Nonstick Oven Safe Thermo-Spot Heat Indicator Fry Pan / Saute Pan Dishwasher Safe Cookware, 12.5-Inch, Black" It doesn't sit inside the pan, but it does just perch on the top of the pan rim (just barely sitting on the rim and not inside because the pan's inside diameter at the rim is just a smidge under 12-3/8"). Apparently the T-fal pan is hard to "lid", so I'm satisfied. It was the best I could find and it works.

I typically use it without a lid but when I do need one, I use either a wok top or a silicone lid.

I had a large cover on a pot that fit good enough. I read the cover that is suggested doesn't work so save your money.

if im not mistaken the 10 inch lid from the 3qt saute pan should fit the 10 inch frying pan. for the 8 inch u can try one of the smaller lids..

Sorry, I don't know where to get a lid either, but I haven't had time to look. I am planning on purchasing a second one of these soon, and getting a lid when I find one.

I don't have a matching lid. I'm sure you could fine a clear lid or a red one. Either way I love this pan.

Unfortunately at the time I bought this wonderful skillet, there wasn't any lid offered. I ended up buying an All-Clad lid from Crate and Barrel for a reasonable price which fits perfectly.

Not that I've been able to find, unfortunately. However, I adore this skillet and found that a lid from another frying pan in my kitchen fits it well. If anyone else knows if Le Creuset sells a lid to fit their skillets, I would be very interested and appreciative.

The lid is stainless, nice quality. I bought it for a De Buyer 14"frying pan (2nd try). The lid did not fit without a little modification. I used a belt sander to remove a little from the rim at the location of each handle. It now fits perfectly. This is a large lid, make sure you have a place to store it when not in use.

Lids aren't included with most sauté or frying pans. You can purchase almost any brand of 10" lid separately or use a 10" lid you already have - it has no effect on the heating/cooking characteristics of the pan itself.

I found one in an Asian supermarket, it is glass and fits fairly well. Firts measure the inside and outside diameter in mm and then bring a metric tape measure to get the correct size. In CA, the lid can be found at Lion, Ranch 99 supermarkets, costs is less than $15.

Calphalon is one of the best...the lid fits perfect for my Calphalon skillet because it was made for it. However, I do not know how the lid would fit on other cookware products. Cast iron sell lids for their products. Also, I don't mix and match. Hope this was helpful!

I bought the mini iron fry pan by lodge and lid fits perfect love the set. I would rather not use T- fall once it scratches you would have to toss it. I would recommend buying the set it will last a life time with proper care and season it all the time and don't use soap on them or let them sit wet!

The 6432c comes with a tempered glass lid. Mine lasted only marginally longer than any other decent nonstick pan. I wouldn't buy again at its current price.

Scan pan makes an 11" square griddle which would be ideal. Otherwise the 12 3/4 frypan is a great size for many dishes.

I did not buy the lid from Amazon, but yes, I have a glass lid that fits it perfectly..this circulon symmetry is very nice to cook with, works on induction cooktops also.

Farberware may sell replacements, but have you tried entering your need in an ebay search? Perhaps a 12 inch lid for a frying pan may be listed...even if it is a similar line of frying pans. 12'' is 12'' so maybe it would work?

You can find one that fits well on Amazon, just search for Anchor-Hocking 2 qt Batter-Bowl lid. I am not sure the lid is less than another whole set.

Addendum to my last answer: What you want is a domed lid in the right diameter. Sounds like you want the lid in a hurry, but if you can't find it anywhere else, you can try garage/yard/ estate sales, thrift stores, and/or flea markets. Sometimes you can find things there that you can't find anywhere else. Just remember to measure the diameter (with a ruler) so you get the best fit. BTW, I'm curious about what kind of Indian dish you'd make with this pan?
