Abstract:
1. A frying accessory comprising: a. a left and a right opposing hold-down flap each having a respective lowermost rigid structure defining a plane, the lowermost rigid structures of a size and configuration as to hold a tortilla flat against a horizontal surface; b. an elongated, generally straight, central lift bar moveably coupled between the left and right hold-down flaps; the coupling of the hold-down flaps and the central lift bar providing for at least two configurations of relative positioning: a first frying configuration in which the left hold-down flap's lowermost region and right hold-down flap's lowermost region are co-planar and mutually proximate with a gap between them, the gap being generally rectangular and through the accessory; further, in the frying configuration, the central lift bar being parallel to and directly above the gap and in a plane parallel to the hold-down flaps' planes; and a second inserting-removing configuration in which both the left and right hold-down flaps are above the central lift bar.
