Apparatus for cooking food comprises a vessel (12) for hot liquid in which the food is to be cooked, and a basket (18) for holding an item of food to be cooked by being immersed in the liquid. The food can be introduced into and removed from the basket (18) from an opening (for example, in the top) of the latter. The basket is supported on support means, such as a wheel (16), and there is provided a retaining member such as a lid (100) for extending across the opening in the basket to retain food therein during cooking. The lid (100) is preferably mounted on the wheel (16) such that the removal of the basket (18) from the wheel (16) separates the basket (18) from the lid (100) to allow access to the interior of the basket (18).
