You’ve got the ingredients and the idea — you just want calm, clear steps and the right amounts, not a wall of someone’s life story.

Cooking for how many?

Recipes online assume four. You’re cooking for one, or two, or six. Getting the amounts right shouldn’t mean doing maths over a hot pan.

Quantities that scale automatically

Tell the app who you’re cooking for and every ingredient quantity scales to match — from solo suppers to family feasts, the right amounts every time, so you buy and cook exactly what you need.

A calm, confident method

Then it walks you through it: clear numbered steps, exact amounts, safe cooking temperatures built in, and one genuinely useful tip. Follow along step by step and cook anything confidently. (Step-by-step walkthroughs are a Plus feature.)

Step-by-step recipes: frequently asked questions

Can recipes be scaled for one person?

Yes. Tell it how many you are cooking for and every ingredient quantity scales to match, from solo suppers to family portions, so you buy and cook exactly what you need with no leftovers maths.

How do I adjust recipe quantities for more people?

Set the number of servings and the amounts recalculate automatically. That beats doing the sums over a hot pan and helps you avoid over-buying.

What temperature should I cook chicken to?

Chicken should be cooked until piping hot all the way through with no pink meat and clear juices, which is a core internal temperature of 75C. The Food Standards Agency covers safe cooking temperatures at food.gov.uk.
