Item Overview

The Cooked slimy eel is a food item in Old School RuneScape (OSRS) that players can consume to restore their health. It is crafted by cooking a slimy eel on a fire or a cooking range. Slimy eels are primarily obtained from fishing in specific locations throughout Gielinor, making this item a common culinary delight for players seeking sustenance during their adventures.

Obtaining Slimy Eels

To create a Cooked slimy eel, players must first catch slimy eels. This can be done by fishing in the following locations:

Fishing Guild: Requires level 68 Fishing, but offers the best catch rates.
The Enchanted Valley: A location where players can fish without any specific requirements.
In the Wilderness: Players can fish for slimy eels in the dangerous areas of the Wilderness, but be wary of other players!

Once caught, players need to cook the slimy eels. The Cooking level required to cook slimy eels is 40.

Cooking Process

Cooking slimy eels is a straightforward process:

Obtain slimy eels through fishing.
Find a fire or cooking range (such as those found in banks or towns).
Use the slimy eel on the fire or range.

Players can also use the Cooking Gauntlets to achieve a higher success rate and reduce the chances of burning the slimy eels while cooking. Cooking requires level 40 and provides 120 experience points per eel cooked.

Healing Properties

When consumed, the Cooked slimy eel restores health:

Health Restored	5 Hitpoints
Heal per Cooked Slimy Eel	5 Hitpoints

This makes Cooked slimy eels a viable option for low-level players who need a quick health boost without consuming too many resources.

Low-Level Boss Fights: Players can consume these eels to maintain their health during battles against lower-level bosses.
Slayer Tasks: When tackling lower-tier monsters, Cooked slimy eels can provide quick healing without taking up too much inventory space.
