miniChef: cook hands-free

Open the fridge, see three things, and no idea what to make? Tell miniChef what you have. It writes you a complete recipe — ingredients, method, timings and full nutrition — in seconds.

WHAT YOU GET

• A real recipe, not a search result. Written for the ingredients you actually listed, the time you actually have, and the number of people you are actually feeding.
• Full nutrition on every recipe: calories, protein, carbohydrate and fat, per serving or per 100 g.
• Recipes in your language. English, Български, Español, Français, Deutsch, Italiano, Русский, Türkçe and 日本語 — written in that language, not machine translated afterwards.
• Photos of the finished dish, generated on request.
• Point your camera at your ingredients and miniChef reads them for you, so you can skip the typing.
• Edit anything. Change the title, the quantities, the steps — and add your own photo of how it actually turned out.

EU ALLERGEN INFORMATION

Every recipe shows a Contains line covering the 14 allergens named in EU Regulation 1169/2011, worked out from its ingredients, plus health labels like Balanced or High protein that tell you the rule behind them.

SHOP FOR IT WITHOUT THE GUESSWORK

Send a recipe's ingredients to your shopping basket, then see what the whole basket costs at shops near you — the cheapest single shop, and the cheapest split across several. Powered by kolichka, across Bulgarian supermarkets.

BUILT AROUND HOW YOU ACTUALLY COOK

Tell miniChef once about your diet, your skill level and anything you cannot eat, and it respects that in every recipe from then on. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, low-carb, high-protein — set it and forget it.

Save what you like. Search and filter your collection by cuisine, meal, diet or difficulty, so the thing you cooked in March is still findable in November.

SIGN IN WITHOUT A PASSWORD

No password to invent, no password to forget. Enter your email, type the six-digit code we send you, and you are in — and you stay in. Continue with Google if you prefer. New accounts get 50 free recipes.

HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT IS

miniChef writes recipes using AI, and we would rather tell you what that means than pretend it is magic:

• Nutrition figures are careful estimates from ingredient composition, not laboratory analysis. Good enough to plan a week. Not a substitute for medical advice.
• Allergen information is worked out from ingredient names. It cannot know which brand you buy or what else was made in that factory. If you or anyone at your table has a food allergy, always read the label on the actual product. Please do not rely on any app for that, including this one.
• You are the cook. Check that food is properly cooked through, especially meat, poultry, eggs and fish.

PRIVACY YOU CAN CHECK

Analytics are self-hosted on our own servers and cookieless. No advertising networks, no tracking pixels. We do not sell your data — not as a policy we might revise, but because the business does not work that way. Free recipes are generated on our own hardware in Bulgaria, so your prompt does not leave our infrastructure.
