Usage notes
edit

Cuire has the meaning of "making food undergo a chemical transformation process using heat or other means" whereas cuisiner means "to prepare/arrange food in order to make it proper for consumption and palatable".
Cuire is also a transitive verb but instead of the transitive verb meaning “to cook” one often uses faire cuire.
