Abstract: A cooking appliance (2,20) comprises a first container (8, 26), a base (6, 44), an axle (10, 42) extending generally vertically from a bottom of the first container (8, 26), and a second container (12, 32) including a vertically extending funnel (34) which is engageable with a male member (46) arranged at an upper end of the axle (10, 42). The cooking appliance (2, 20) can assume a configuration in which the second container (12, 32) is rotatably drivenable by the male member (46) in relation to the first container (8, 26), to remove liquid from food contained in the second container (12, 32).
