       DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
       [0006]    Apparatus that will insure a healthy cooking of a wide range of produce using a minimum amount of oil, or in some cases no oil at all. 
         [0007]    The invention in question is an appliance for either cooking or frying all kinds of vegetables, potatoes as well as poultry and red meat. 
         [0008]    Since they are quite popular, French fries are consumed on a tremendously large scale. They are copiously served to garnish main courses in restaurants, offered on the counters of bars, and even sold on roads in canteens. 
         [0009]    Like fries, most baked goods cannot endure long-term storage. Therefore, they go through processes that efficiently convert raw as well as preprocessed into produce which are fit for consumption. 
         [0010]    Processing starchy vegetables such as potato requires colossal amounts of oil. At least 30% of this oil is absorbed into the final produce, in this case French fries. This massive absorbtion of fat can render an even a moderate consumption a serious threat to the health of the consumers. 
         [0011]    To tackle the fat issue, this innovative device has the capability to process any desired product with a considerably low quantity of fat (5%-6%). The desired product will become crunchy and tasty as well. 
         [0012]    Unlike the traditional ways of frying potatoes in large quantities of oil and reusing the same oil over and over, practically only a couple of tablespoons of oil is sprinkled on the potato chips before frying them in the device in question. 
       DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE 
       [0013]    The construction of the apparatus is based on the plan of a drive motor ( 4 ) having a square shaped shaft ( 5 ) which is located at the chamber base ( 19 ) of the cooking chamber ( 3 ). A protective plate ( 6 ) with notches ( 7 ) is supported on the chamber base ( 19 ). The heat source ( 1 ) is also supported on the chamber base ( 19 ). 
         [0014]    For the heat source ( 1 ) there is the protective tube ( 8 ) with a face washer ( 9 ) which has hooks ( 10 ) attached to it. At the front of the protective tube ( 8 ) there is a hole ( 12 ). In the inner part of the device there is a perforated drum ( 15 ), The door of the perforated drum ( 16 ) has bolts ( 22 ) to secure the holes ( 24 ) when closed. In the perforated drum ( 15 ) we installed the heating tube ( 14 ) with blade drivers ( 18 ). 
         [0015]    Inside the perforated drum ( 15 ), there are blade drivers ( 98 ) dividing it into four (or more as needed) equal compartments ( 20 ). 
         [0016]    Inside the perforated drum ( 15 ) we clinch the tubular shaft ( 13 ) carrying a square hole ( 30 ). The perforated drum ( 15 ) carries a handle ( 84 ) at its rear ( 86 ) so as to be pulled out of the device. The device carries both the oil-collecting container ( 26 ) which collects the excess oil and a second container for the usage of the device as described below. The cooking chamber ( 3 ) has a door ( 25 ), a temperature switch ( 29 ), vents ( 27 ) and a glass door ( 28 ) to monitor the cooking process. The cooking chamber ( 3 ), inside the chamber floor ( 40 ) carries a lifting device ( 42 ) to lift the oil-collection container ( 26 ). 
       Second Usage of the Device 
       [0017]    There are times when we want to fry a produce with more oil. This can be done using the oil-collection container ( 26 ) which has a particular shape ( FIG. 6 ). The oil-collection container ( 26 ) is deeper in the middle and shallower on the edges. So when oil is poured, it is collected at the bottom in small quantities ( FIG. 7 ). 
         [0018]    To way it works is that on the chamber floor ( 40 ) of the cooking chamber ( 3 ) there is a lifting device ( 42 ) which is pulls the lever ( 45 ) and with the help of a screw shaft ( 48 ) lifts the braces ( 52 ), the oil collection-container ( 26 ) rises, and the perforated drum ( 15 ) immerses in the oil as much as needed for the adequate sprinkling of the produce while it is rotating. By moving the lever ( 45 ) to the previous position, the oil collection container ( 26 ) goes down and in this way controls the amount of oil desired sprinkle and fry the produce. 
       How to Operate the Device 
       [0019]    To obtain-the desired result, the device operates as follows: 
         [0020]    The figures show where and how the heat source ( 1 ) in the chamber base ( 19 ) of the cooking chamber ( 3 ) should be positioned. The chamber base ( 19 ) of the cooking chamber ( 3 ) is fixed and the protective plate ( 6 ) has notches ( 7 ). 
         [0021]    We set the perforated drum ( 15 ) vertically, we open the drum door ( 16 ) and we put produce (e.g. potato strips ( 50 ), etc.) in approximately equal parts in the areas ( 20 ). To close the drum door ( 16 ), pegs ( 22 ) are inserted into the holes ( 24 ) which are at the perforated drum ( 15 ) and thus lock the drum door ( 16 ). We open the chamber door ( 25 ) of the cooking chamber ( 3 ) where the heat source ( 1 ) is rested. We take the protective tube ( 8 ), place it over the heat source ( 1 ) to avoid contact with the potato chips ( 50 ). The protective tube ( 8 ) bearing face washer ( 9 ), and the hooks ( 10 ), through which the partial rotation shows the arrow ( 11 ) of  FIG. 4 , are snapped into the notches ( 7 ) of the protective plate ( 6 ) to stabilize it. 
         [0022]    At this stage everything is stable within the cooking chamber ( 3 ). Only the shaft ( 5 ) which has a square form, will rotate in the process of cooking. The perforated drum ( 15 ) is prepared as described earlier. We take the perforated drum ( 15 ) that having a fixed tubular shaft ( 13 ) that having a square hole ( 30 ) and we adapt it to the square shaft ( 5 ) of the drive motor ( 4 ). We fix the heating tube ( 14 ) in the perforated drum ( 15 ), to act as a &lt;&lt;rotating pan&gt;&gt;. Since it has a larger diameter than the protective tube ( 8 ), there will be no friction between these two parts during operation. The oil collection container ( 26 ) is placed under the perforated drum ( 15 ) to collect any leaking oil. After closing the chamber door ( 25 ) of the cooking chamber ( 3 ), we set the desired temperature using the switch ( 29 ) and the cooking process starts. There are ventilation holes ( 27 ) at the upper part of the cooking chamber ( 3 ). The process can be monitored through the glass door ( 28 ). As seen in  FIG. 3 , the advantage of this device is that the potato chips ( 50 ) (or other produce) get very close to the heat source ( 1 ). 
         [0023]    By avoiding heat loss, there are noticeable benefits as far as the cooking speed and energy are concerned. 
         [0024]    So the energy and time economy is great because as how far away the baking time is increased and the desired crispy potato strips ( 5 ) for is not achieved. One way to fry e.g. potato strips ( 50 ) or other type of food is not fried in frying pan in the oven, but there needs to stir often to prevent burning. With this apparatus it is like having a rotating pan, and as mentioned above, the potato strips ( 50 ) or other type of food is too close to the heat source ( 1 ) as seen in  FIG. 3  by rotating shuffled themselves. 
         [0025]    The specially designed perforated drum ( 15 ) ensures that: 
         [0026]    By closing the door ( 16 ) the potato chips ( 50 ) or any other type of food cannot be transferred from one compartment to another. The perforated drum ( 15 ) can be partitioned into four (six, eight, ten, etc.) compartments depending on its size when it is intended for professional use. 
         [0027]    The device can be operated with gas system as a heat source, and a motor operating on a 12V battery. This makes the device transportable as well as portable.
