We've been cooking very elaborate meals in our plain aluminum pans for 45 years. However, we don't fry anything, other than browning a roux, scrambling eggs, or browning FD hash browns a little. It's a myth that aluminum is bad for you:

It's the most abundant metal in the earth's crust. Our 45 y.o. cookware is still all there. We haven't eaten it. Ti pots and pans suck, IMO. Terrible heat conductivity, one of the very worst metals. You want the most conductive metal you can get for camp cooking, which is aluminum, 4 times better than cast iron. Copper is best, except for being heavy and a heavy metal poison as well. Copper clad SS is popular at home, but is less conductive than aluminum and also heavy. Thermal conductivity chart here:
