Cooking with Chefadora AI

Chefadora AI is the world’s first AI cooking assistant, designed to guide you through the entire cooking process.

Using Chefadora AI makes following recipes easier, helps you avoid mistakes, and lets you personalise each recipe to suit your preferences. This guide explains how to use Chefadora AI from start to finish.


Getting Started with Chefadora AI

What is Cooking Mode?

Cooking Mode is the interactive version of a recipe in Chefadora AI. In this mode, the recipe is broken down into simple steps, and you can access tools like Ask AI, Timers, and Add Notes as you cook. Cooking Mode ensures you have clear guidance throughout the recipe so you can cook confidently.

How to Enter Cooking Mode

  1. Open any recipe on Chefadora.

  2. Tap the Cook with Chefadora AI button.

  1. The recipe will open in Cooking Mode, starting with the ingredients list.

Check your ingredients before you start so you are prepared and don’t need to pause midway.


Ingredients List

The first screen in Cooking Mode shows all the ingredients needed for the recipe.

  • Review the list to confirm what you already have.

  • If you are missing any ingredient, use Ask AI to find a substitute.

  • This helps ensure that you can cook the recipe without interruptions.

Examples of How Ask AI Can Help

  • Missing sour cream? → Ask AI: “Can I use yogurt instead of sour cream?”

  • Allergic to peanuts? → Ask AI: “What’s a nut-free substitute for peanuts?”

    Ask AI Anything

    The Ask AI feature is a built-in assistant that answers your questions instantly while you cook. You don’t need to leave the kitchen to look things up.

    Checking ingredients first also allows you to plan your cooking process and avoid mistakes like missing key steps or having incorrect proportions.

    How to Use Ask AI

  1. Tap the Ask AI button in Cooking Mode.

  2. Type your question in the box.

  3. Chefadora AI will provide an immediate response with clear instructions.

    Examples of Questions You Can Ask

    1. Ingredient substitutions → “Can I use olive oil instead of butter?”

    2. Allergy-safe alternatives → “What’s a gluten-free option for flour?”

    3. Cooking terms or techniques → “What does sauté mean?”

    4. Adjusting or skipping steps → “Can I skip marination if I’m short on time?”

    5. Storage advice → “How do I store leftover curry?”

    This feature helps you solve cooking issues quickly, keeps you on track, and allows you to adapt recipes according to what you have or your dietary needs.

    Step-by-Step Instructions

    In Cooking Mode, Chefadora AI divides the recipe into individual steps to make it easy to follow.

  1. Each step is displayed one at a time.

  2. Swipe to next when you are ready to continue.

  3. Steps that require timing automatically display a timer.

    Example Step Flow

    1. Chop the onions.

    2. Heat oil in a pan.

    3. Add onions and cook for 5 minutes.

    Step-by-step guidance ensures that you complete the recipe in order, reduces errors, and makes it easier to manage multiple tasks while cooking.


    Using Built-in Timers

    Chefadora AI includes timers to help you manage cooking times without using another device.

    • If a step requires a specific time, a timer button appears.

    • Tap Set Timer to start.

    • You will receive a notification when the timer ends.

    Benefits of Using Timers

    • Keeps your cooking accurate.

    • Helps with multitasking in the kitchen.

    Makes it easier to follow recipes that involve precise cooking times.

Adding Notes

The Add Notes feature allows you to save your own adjustments and personal touches to a recipe.

How to Add Notes

  1. Tap Add Notes in Cooking Mode.

  2. Type your note and save it. You’ll also find an “Add to Notes” option directly in the Ask AI box after you’ve asked a question.

    What to Include in Notes

    • Ingredient substitutions you tried.

    • Adjustments to spice levels or cooking times.

    • Additional ingredients you added.

    • Any changes that made the recipe work better for you.

    Examples:

    • “Used coconut milk instead of cream.”

    • “Added chili flakes for extra heat.”

    Notes are saved with the recipe, so you can follow the same personal version the next time you cook.

    Using Chefadora AI allows you to:

    • Check ingredients and get alternatives before starting.

    • Ask questions anytime during cooking.

    • Follow recipes clearly and step by step.

    • Use timers to keep track of cooking times.

    • Add notes to personalise recipes.
