About Cookpad: Recipe Book & Meals
Not sure what to cook tonight? Cookpad recommends: search by ingredient or by meal across thousands of authentic recipes from a global community of home cooks — all verified by the people who have actually cooked them.
WHAT SHALL I COOK TONIGHT?
Tell us what's in the fridge and we'll tell you what to make with it. Chicken, eggs, mince beef, half a bag of pasta: every recipe we put in front of you has already been cooked by someone before you, who left a photo of how it turned out (Cooksnap) and wrote up how it went. It's not a list to scroll — it's a recommendation for tonight, with the proof that it works.
RECIPES VERIFIED BY THE COMMUNITY
Trustworthy recipes, written by the people who cook them every day, not by an editorial team. Every Cooksnap is a photo from someone who made it before you, with comments on how it went: where it goes wrong, whether the measurements add up, how long it really takes. That's how we know what to recommend — no editor decides it, the person who cooked it proves it.
THE RECIPES YOU GREW UP WITH
Cottage pie, corned beef hash, bubble and squeak, Sunday roast, Yorkshire puddings, scones and Victoria sponge: the dishes people actually make at home, written by the people who make them.
IMPORT FROM ANYWHERE, INCLUDING INSTAGRAM AND TIKTOK
Write your own recipes or import your favourites from any website, from Instagram, from TikTok, from a book or from a handwritten notebook. Build your own biggest recipe collection, all in one place.
Tap Share and the recipe is added straight to your collection — ingredients and steps separated, ready to follow. No more screenshots lost in your camera roll. Save them as drafts and finish them whenever you want.
AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION
Find a recipe in Spanish, Italian or Japanese and read it in English: the translation is automatic.
AD-FREE. ALWAYS.
No ads, not even in the free version. No banner to close with flour on your hands, no video starting up while you're reading the measurements.
YOUR DIGITAL RECIPE BOOK, ALL IN ONE PLACE
Your recipe book, recipe keeper and cooking app in one. Save recipes from anywhere and find them in seconds.
• Import & Scan: Import any recipe from a website or a social post in one tap. Snap a photo of a handwritten recipe or a cookbook page: AI turns it into a digital recipe.
• Create with AI: Write your own recipes with the AI Recipe Assistant, without forgetting a single step. Save the draft and finish it whenever you have time.
• Organise & Plan: Sort everything into private folders by theme — chicken, baking, gluten-free, breakfast. Build your weekly menu in a few taps and let your shopping list build itself from your recipes: you only add what's missing.
• Cook What You Have: Cook with what's already in your fridge or cupboard. Save money, use your leftovers and reduce food waste.
FOR EVERY TASTE AND NEED
Healthy lunch ideas, breakfast, easy midweek meals, packed lunches and batch cooking. Comfort food and classics, seasonal veg, and baking from lemon d

About Cookpad: Recipe Book & Meals
Not sure what to cook tonight? Cookpad recommends: search by ingredient or by meal across thousands of authentic recipes from a global community of home cooks — all verified by the people who have actually cooked them.
WHAT SHALL I COOK TONIGHT?
Tell us what's in the fridge and we'll tell you what to make with it. Chicken, eggs, mince beef, half a bag of pasta: every recipe we put in front of you has already been cooked by someone before you, who left a photo of how it turned out (Cooksnap) and wrote up how it went. It's not a list to scroll — it's a recommendation for tonight, with the proof that it works.
RECIPES VERIFIED BY THE COMMUNITY
Trustworthy recipes, written by the people who cook them every day, not by an editorial team. Every Cooksnap is a photo from someone who made it before you, with comments on how it went: where it goes wrong, whether the measurements add up, how long it really takes. That's how we know what to recommend — no editor decides it, the person who cooked it proves it.
THE RECIPES YOU GREW UP WITH
Cottage pie, corned beef hash, bubble and squeak, Sunday roast, Yorkshire puddings, scones and Victoria sponge: the dishes people actually make at home, written by the people who make them.
IMPORT FROM ANYWHERE, INCLUDING INSTAGRAM AND TIKTOK
Write your own recipes or import your favourites from any website, from Instagram, from TikTok, from a book or from a handwritten notebook. Build your own biggest recipe collection, all in one place.
Tap Share and the recipe is added straight to your collection — ingredients and steps separated, ready to follow. No more screenshots lost in your camera roll. Save them as drafts and finish them whenever you want.
AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION
Find a recipe in Spanish, Italian or Japanese and read it in English: the translation is automatic.
AD-FREE. ALWAYS.
No ads, not even in the free version. No banner to close with flour on your hands, no video starting up while you're reading the measurements.
YOUR DIGITAL RECIPE BOOK, ALL IN ONE PLACE
Your recipe book, recipe keeper and cooking app in one. Save recipes from anywhere and find them in seconds.
• Import & Scan: Import any recipe from a website or a social post in one tap. Snap a photo of a handwritten recipe or a cookbook page: AI turns it into a digital recipe.
• Create with AI: Write your own recipes with the AI Recipe Assistant, without forgetting a single step. Save the draft and finish it whenever you have time.
• Organise & Plan: Sort everything into private folders by theme — chicken, baking, gluten-free, breakfast. Build your weekly menu in a few taps and let your shopping list build itself from your recipes: you only add what's missing.
• Cook What You Have: Cook with what's already in your fridge or cupboard. Save money, use your leftovers and reduce food waste.
