An assembly comprising:
- a bowl that includes:
- a bottom;
- a first lateral wall that extends from the bottom in a first direction, the bottom and the first lateral wall delimiting a first inner volume;
- and
- a handle that extends outside of the first inner volume;
- a cap shaped so as to close the first inner volume;
- a cooking basket configured so as to be arranged inside the first inner volume, the cooking basket including a perforated bottom, a second lateral wall delimiting with the perforated bottom a second inner volume, and a gripping member;
- and
- a housing configured to house at least partially the gripping member of the cooking basket, the housing being arranged outside the first inner volume and outside the second inner volume, and the housing being isolated from the first inner volume and second inner volume,
- wherein the housing cooperates by form-fitting with the gripping member of the cooking basket to isolate the gripping member from an area outside the assembly and to provide a sealing between the first and second inner volumes and the area outside the assembly;
- wherein the housing comprises a first portion formed on the handle of the bowl and a second portion formed on the cap;
- wherein the first lateral wall has an upper edge defining an aperture that opens in the first inner volume;
- and
- wherein the aperture forms a recess that is open in the first portion of the housing so that:
- in a first configuration, a section of the recess is completely filled by the gripping member of the cooking basket with the gripping member located outside of the housing, and
- in a second configuration, the section of the recess is tightly closed by the cap.
