Almost always caused by a layer of burnt-on fat on the light non-stick coating (carbonization). This is caused by too high heat, olive oil or baking spray, and food residue that remains stuck.

• Add a tablespoon of vinegar and some baking soda to the pan.
• Let this simmer gently for 10 minutes and then leave it to soak for a few hours.
• Then clean the pan with a melamine sponge and warm soapy water. Do not use an abrasive cleaner or the hard side of a scouring pad.
• Test it with a splash of cold milk: if it runs off cleanly, the pan is clean.

Cook over medium-high heat instead of the highest setting, and use an oil with a high smoke point instead of olive oil. Wash the pan after each use until it shines again; a dull film will have come out, possibly with baking soda and vinegar.
