Tested on 47 cooking videos in 21 languages from 30 countries. It captured 96% of what cooks said about amounts — and only turned it into a number when they actually gave one.
- What am I going to cook?
- Do I have the ingredients?
- How many calories is this?
- It serves 4 — I need 2…

1 · Before you cook
The questions start before the pan is even hot.
How it works
1Find a dish
Search, try the demo, or start from what is in. A link is for when you already have one.
2It reads what is there
Ingredients, amounts, order and timing — and what the source never says.
3Cook with guidance
Step by step, read aloud, with the original two seconds away.
4Mark what you did
Notes on what you actually used stay with the dish for next time.
Only in RecipeMirror
The things other recipe apps don’t do.
No invented amounts
When a cook says “a little oil”, you see their words — not a made-up “2 tbsp”. Every other amount is there, exactly as said.
Calories on the cooked dish
Per serving, counted on cooked weight. Water that steams off the pan doesn’t make your curry look lighter than it is.
English beside their language
A Hindi, Tamil or Spanish video keeps the cook’s own words, with English right next to them. Never instead of them.
A shopping list they can tick
Send one link. Whoever is at the shop ticks things off, and you see it on your list as they go. No app needed.
Cook with your voice
“Next.” “Go to step 10.” “How much salt?” Hands covered, phone on the counter — it answers from the recipe.
Would I choose this?
Scan a pack’s barcode for a clear verdict from UK traffic-light rules, why, and what a better pick looks like.
Their language, kept
English beside the original. Never instead of it.

Your sources, notes and favourites stay yours. Family recordings are never published or shared.
Honest uncertainty
When RecipeMirror does not know, it does not pretend. An amount nobody stated stays a question.
