Find your recipes when you want to cook

Your own recipes, searchable, and filtered by the questions you have at five o’clock: what’s on the table in half an hour, and what haven’t we made yet?

The problem

What shall we have tonight?

You’ve saved hundreds of recipes and still pick the same thing again, because searching takes longer than cooking. You remember it had chicken in it and was quick, but not what it was called.

How Smaquli solves it

Search, filter and choose

Search by name, even if you don’t remember it exactly. Or filter: Smaquli estimates the difficulty, chopping, type and method of every recipe itself. Your own choice always wins.

The app is in Dutch for now. English is on its way.

First a search for chicken, then a filter for no oven.

All your recipes in one place, with your favourites on top.
No oven and five ingredients at most: filter for what you feel like tonight.
The top 7: what you like best and make most often.

Cooked! and your top list

Tap Cooked! when you’ve made something. Smaquli keeps count, and everyone in the household gives their own stars and a reason. That becomes your top list, so even on a tired evening you know what everyone likes.

The filters, as the app puts them

Total time: Up to 20 min, 30 min, 45 min, 1 hour or 2 hours.
Difficulty and Chopping: From easy to hard, and from little to lots of chopping.
Veg, fish or meat: Choose what’s allowed on the table tonight.
Method: Oven, air fryer, one pan, or no oven at all.
Ingredients: At most 5, 8 or 12. Whatever is Always in stock, like salt and pepper, doesn’t count.
Rating and Cooked: 4 stars or more, or the recipes you haven’t made yet.
An ingredient to use up: Half a courgette in the fridge? Find the recipes it fits in.
Sorting: By Newest, By name or by Rating.

What it doesn’t do (yet)

Smaquli catches typos in the recipe name, not in the rest of the text.
There are no collections or folders (yet); you find recipes with search and filters.
Smaquli doesn’t make a meal plan (yet).

Questions

Can I search with a typo?

Yes, in the recipe name. Search for "shaksuka" and you’ll find the shakshuka.

Who decides whether a recipe is easy?

Smaquli estimates it, just like the chopping, the type and the method. If you disagree, change it; your own choice wins.

Does salt count towards At most 5 ingredients?

No. Whatever is Always in stock, like salt, pepper and olive oil, doesn’t count.

Can I put recipes in folders?

No, there are no collections (yet). You find them with search and the filters.
