Chinese culinary art is extensive and profound and has a variety of cooking techniques, which mainly comprise: stir frying, stewing, deep frying, boiling, steaming, pan frying, grilling, etc. The essence of various cooking techniques is to cook ever-changing dishes with various tastes and flavors by changing food match and controlling heating. Up to now, cooking process involves a lot of manual labor and relies very much on the cooker's experience and skills.
There exists some automated cooking machines, however, they normally cannot realize fully-automatic operation from feeding raw ingredients into the wok till pouring the cooked food out of the wok. More particularly, existing automated cooking machines cannot automatically pour the cooked food out of the wok or put accessory ingredients and raw food easily, and thus manual operation is still required during the cooking process. In addition, existing automatic operation program only has single function to cook dishes with same flavor and cannot be popular used.
