You can also use bicarbonate of soda (in Australia bicarb soda)... to clean burnt pots and pans.
All you have to do is sprinkle a liberal amount on the burnt parts and fill with water and put it on the cooktop to boil. Leave it to boil for at least 10 minuutes and then scrub off the burnt offerings. It usually works for me unless it is beyond redemtion.
