A multi-functional cooking device that combines a steamer, skillet, griddle, fryer, kettle and oven into a single unit. The cooking device has a hollow base and a hollow lid. The base and the lid mate to provide an enclosed space for heating food. Heating means are associated with the base, to heat the interior space. Means are provided for lifting the lid relative to the base, and for maintaining the lid at a set position relative to the base. The base is adapted to receive water, so that when it is heated, steam will be formed in the space enclosed by the lid and base. The lower edge of the lid is recessed, and receives in the recess the upper edge of the base, whereby the mating of the two edges provides a junction to maintain steam within the space formed by the lid and base. A mechanism is provided for tilting the base at a predetermined angle, to facilitate the use of the base for grilling or frying foods.
