Dapur Hemat: Meal Planner

Dapur Hemat is a smart meal planner for home cooking on a clear budget. Set a daily, weekly or monthly grocery budget, and the app builds a meal plan, home-style recipes and a grocery list with estimated ingredient prices for your city.

It suits students living on their own, young couples and families who want good food at home without wondering what to cook every day or overspending at the market.

Key features

- Automatic meal and grocery plans
Choose a daily, weekly or monthly plan. The app picks the most affordable ingredients in your city, then creates varied recipes from them for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks.

- Your budget, always visible
Today's remaining budget sits on the home screen with a clear safe, low or over-budget status. Every meal gets its own cost limit, so the total stays under control.

- Ingredient prices for your city
Prices are adjusted to the city you choose, from Banda Aceh to Merauke. Every recipe shows the total cost, cost per serving and the price of each ingredient.

- Smart Chef: cook with what you have
Type what's in your kitchen, such as eggs, tempeh and water spinach. The Smart Chef suggests recipes that match your per-meal budget, servings and mealtime. You can also ask it any cooking question.

- Allergy and diet friendly
Select allergies (nuts, seafood, eggs, dairy, soy, gluten) and diets (Halal, Vegetarian, Vegan, Keto, Gluten-Free, Low Calorie). Recipes containing your allergens are not recommended, and ingredients you avoid are left out.

- Made for your taste
Set your spice level, favourite flavours and cuisines: Indonesian home cooking, Javanese, Sundanese, Padang, Manado, Betawi, Chinese-Indonesian, Western and Japanese/Korean.

- Smart grocery list
Ingredients from every meal are grouped by shopping trip (main shop, fresh produce and extras) with quantities, estimated prices and where to store them: fridge, freezer, pantry or room temperature. Food you already have at home is taken into account.

- Fits your fridge and pantry
The app checks your storage space. If your fridge is small, fresh produce trips are scheduled more often.

- Swap a meal without breaking the plan
Replace any meal at any time. The grocery list and total cost update right away.

- Step-by-step recipes
Each recipe includes cooking time, difficulty, calories per serving and a timer for every step. Cooking mode keeps your screen on while you cook.

- Save, rate and share
Save favourite recipes and meal plans, rate what you cooked, share recipes with family and find nearby markets or supermarkets on Google Maps.
