Abstract
A device for processing and cooking food comprises a base housing a heating element for a food cooking function and a controllable motor for a food processing function. A container seatable on the base has an inlet for introducing food and an outlet for processed food. A blade is rotatably mounted within the container and driven by the controllable motor to process any food that is introduced into the container. A removable pan is seatable on the base proximate to the heating element to define a cooking surface. The outlet is positioned relative to the removable pan so that any food introduced into the container exits the outlet directly onto the cooking surface. A spatula can be coupled to the base and positioned within the removable pan for movement across the cooking surface to stir the processed food as it is cooked. A method is also disclosed.
