ABSTRACT
The proposed project is an Android Application that will provide recipes to the users based on the ingredients available with
them. From a list of ingredients, the user has to select the available ingredients and then the application will display a list of
recipes which will use the ingredients selected by the user. The user will have filters to select the kind of recipe it wants and
then the result can be sorted and filtered according to the user’ needs.
Keywords: Food, Recipe, Android Application, Android Studio.
1. INTRODUCTION
The advancement in technology has made our lives easy like never before. Everything that we require is available at our
fingertips. With a few taps on our smartphones, we can complete tasks in minimal time. From entertainment to learning and from
fitness to cooking, there are various applications for everything that we need. With just a click of a button, you can get access to
multiple recipes within a second. Each recipe provides you with all the information, from the ingredients required to each step
required to cook the different parts of the dish. These applications are generally used by people who want to try to make some new
dish, or by people who live all by themselves, or by working people who are always short on time. Even though there has been
such a huge advancement in technology, all these applications provide you with the ingredients required, and you must go and buy
the ingredients that are not available to you currently.
The solution we came to is an Android Application that will provide you recipes based on the ingredients that you already have
with you, resulting in less wastage of time and money in buying the unavailable ingredients. The application contains an available
database of food recipes that can be browsed through by the user. Most importantly the user can choose to only see those recipes
with a specific set of ingredients available to it. The user also has the option to filter, sort and favorite those recipes based on its
preference. Moreover, the application also allows the user to add new recipes and ingredients to the application.
2. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The main aim of our application is to provide recipes to the consumers based on the ingredients already available with them,
unlike other recipe providing applications where the ingredients available with the consumer is not taken into consideration.
The objectives of our project are as follows:
To help the user decide a recipe to cook from the ingredients available with him/her.
To guide the user to the recipe based on the user’s choices and needs.
To help save the user money and time by tediously referencing cook books and buying ingredients he/she does not need.
