frypan
Stovetop cooking disc
A frypan is a shallow, flat-bottomed cooking pan with sloped sides and a long handle, used for frying, searing, and sautéing food on a stovetop.
The term is most common in Australian and New Zealand English, where it's the standard word for what Americans typically call a frying pan or skillet.
Grab the frypan and heat some oil for the eggs.
