ABSTRACT:
A portable multi-purpose electric fast cooking apparatus for use in cooking a variety of foods by various methods. The apparatus includes a pair of hinged pan-shaped housing members having a bottom wall and a side wall which can be pivoted between a closed position superposed one above the other in opposed facing relation and an open position laterally adjacent one another, and each housing has a laterally extending handle to serve as a carrying handle when the housing members are in the closed position. A heating plate is carried by each housing member and each plate has a heating element secured to its underside and an outward facing side with a central depressed flat surface surrounded by a raised side wall and shoulder at the top thereof. Each heating element is individually controlled by a separate thermostat. In the closed position, the depressed flat surfaces, surrounding raised side walls and shoulders define a central cavity. In the open position, the depressed flat surface, raised side wall, and shoulder of each plate serve as a mounting surface to receive cooking vessels having mating bottom. The preferred apparatus includes a pot member, a pan member having an open top end configured to be received on the pot member in inverted relation to serve as a cover therefor, and a wire grill capable of being supported either on the heating plate or inside the pot.
