A wind-up pot stirrer, comprising, in combination, a lid. The lid is positionable over the upper edge of a pot with contents to be stirred. The lid has an upstanding annular wall with a central aperture centrally located in the lower surface of the lid. A lid cover has an imperforate upper wall and a downwardly extending cylindrical region with a cylindrical aperture extending downwardly through the central aperture of the lid to a region therebeneath. The cover has an exterior annular wall extending downwardly with a lower edge positionable against the upper surface of the lid. The cover is rotatable about a central axis with respect to the lid. An impeller has a vertical shaft positioned within the cylindrical aperture of the cover for rotation therein. The shaft has impeller blades at the lower extent thereof. The shaft and blades include a spring-biased gear train mechanism. The shaft has an upper end with a vertically disposed slot. A C-shaped corral extends upwardly from the upper surface of the lid with an opening facing the impeller located within the chamber and a rotatable shaft located within the corral.
