Cookin' (Kokkun in Japan) is an enemy found only in Kirby & the Amazing Mirror. It's yellowish, with a chef's hat, has red, Kirby-like feet and a big bottom jaw. It throws a frying pan which acts like a frisbee in order to try and catch Kirby, then cook, toss, and flip him. This attack resembles Chef Kawasaki's cooking attack.
Whenever Cookin' is around, other enemies are also around to make sure that the Cook ability Kirby obtains does not go to waste. Cookin', as mentioned before, gives Kirby the Cook ability. Once Cookin' is defeated, he will not appear again unless the stage is completed.
