What's the circuit protection?
If it's no more than 32A, you would be OK to add an additional
socket outlet. Contrary to some of the other comments, you can
do this in 2.5mm˛ cable, as the fuse in the plug provides the
overload protection on this cable and the 32A MCB provides the
fault current protection. Position the socket so it isn't
likely to be used for anything else (cooker circuits are not
normally RCD protected, so the socket should ideally not be
accessible for portable appliance use).
If it's more than 32A, I don't think you can use BS1363 accessory
items on the circuit (although I don't have a copy of it to check
in).
