An apparatus for preparing, cooking, and dispensing a food product. A rehydration chamber (24) in the apparatus combines a quantity of dehydrated food product and a quantity of heated rehydration liquid to produce a quantity of rehydrated food product that is sufficient to produce an individual portion of cooked food product. A compression station (25) compresses the rehydrated food product to create a prepared mixture of homogenous consistency. An extrusion station (27) extrudes the prepared mixture into a cooker (45) containing a cooking medium. The cooker cooks the extruded prepared mixture to produce an individual portion of cooked food product which is then dispensed by a dispenser (47). |
