Abstract: An automatic multiple-stage cooking machine for food preparation includes a housing having an upper area and a lower area with an elongate member in the upper area. The elongate member has one or more sections to receive a liquid or a food which is then heated by a first heating element controlled by a controller. After the liquid or food is heated it is deposited by a drive mechanism controlled by the controller from the elongate member into one or more containers positioned below on a platform located in the lower area of the housing. The one or more containers receive the heated liquid or heated food and an additional liquid or an additional food for combining together or can include an additional liquid or additional food alone. A second heating element controlled by the controller heats the one or more containers for the preparation of dishes.
