ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a cooking apparatus which is adaptable to facilitate straining requirements. The cooking apparatus comprises of a pot and lid that can be securely integrated to function as a strainer. An outer cover of the lid contains regions of perforation which are gated by an inner element when the cookware is used for traditional cooking. The inner element is easily rotatable to allow for convenient transformation. Mating brackets located along the inner circumference of the pot and the corresponding brackets rimming the curved outer edges of the equatorial plates of the inner element function to integrate the components of the cookware. A knob assembly connecting the elements of the lid controls the positioning of the inner element. The transformation of the cookware is accomplished in one convenient step whereby the knob is depressed and rotated, and the mating brackets are engaged. The contents of the pot are exposed to regions of perforation providing a safe, efficient and convenient method for straining.
