A cooking assembly for a cooker or a cooking top, the assembly comprising:

• a cooking plate,
• at least one heat generator enabling a receptacle to be heated on said cooking plate without coming directly into contact with said at least one heat generator,
• the cooking plate including an opening associated with each heat generator and enabling said generator to act directly on a receptacle on said cooking plate via said opening when the corresponding heat generator is in use,
• said heat generator being integrated in a well disposed beneath the cooking plate coaxially with the associated opening, and
• retractable closure means associated with the opening, said retractable closure means including a moving plug for closing the associated opening when said heat generator is not in use,
• said plug being displaceable by motorized displacement means for moving said plug between a closure position in which the heat generator is masked, with the plug then being flush with a top surface of said cooking plate, and a retracted position in which said heat generator is unmasked for use,
• said motorized displacement means displacing the moving plug vertically when the plug is in line with the associated opening, and displacing said moving plug horizontally beneath the cooking plate when the plug is disengaged from the associated opening.
