A cooking apparatus has a cooking chamber, a microwave unit to radiate microwaves to the cooking chamber, a convection unit to supply hot air to the cooking chamber, a grill unit to supply radiant heat to the cooking chamber, an input unit to receive a cooking command and a control unit to perform a cooking corresponding to the received cooking command by performing one of a first heating stage and a second heating stage, and after performing the one of the first heating stage and the second heating stage, performing the other one of the first heating stage and the second heating stage. In the first heating stage, the control unit operates the microwave unit and at least one of the convection unit and the grill unit, and in the second heating stage, the control unit operates the grill unit and the convection unit while not operating the microwave unit.

Cooking apparatus and control method thereof

A cooking device includes a cooking chamber configured to provide a space in which food is cooked; a tray located at a bottom surface of the cooking chamber, and connected to a drive member generating rotational force; and an agitating cooking assembly supported by the tray and rotatable with the tray. The agitating cooking assembly, having an improved structure configured to cook food while simultaneously agitating the food, includes: a cooking container configured to store food therein; an agitating member configured to agitate the food while simultaneously relatively rotating in the cooking container with respect to the cooking container; and a stopper located at a rotation path of the agitating member in a manner that the agitating member relatively rotates with respect to the cooking container.

Stirring and cooking assembly and cooking equipment including same

A cooking apparatus including a cooking chamber to receive materials to be cooked therein, a microwave-heating unit to radiate microwaves to the cooking chamber, a convection-heating unit to supply hot air to the cooking chamber, a grill-heating unit to supply radiant heat to the cooking chamber, a crusty plate configured to be heated by the microwaves, an input unit to receive a user fry-cooking command, and a control unit. When the user fry-cooking command is input, the control unit performs a microwave-heating stage of activating at least one of the convection-heating unit and the grill-heating unit and activating the microwave-heating unit, and performs a slim fry stage of activating the grill-heating unit and the convection-heating unit without activating the microwave-heating unit. Accordingly, the cooking apparatus achieves the fry-cooking process using the microwaves, radiant heat and convection heat without dipping the materials to be cooked in oil.
