Not every recipe starts as a video. You can type one in yourself with Create from scratch, or describe a dish and let Generate with AI write it up for you to review.
Type in a recipe yourself
Open Create from scratch
On Recipes, tap +, then Create from scratch.
Fill it in
Add a title, then the ingredients and steps. Tap a line to type in it; Details holds the description, servings, times and tags. You can add a photo too.
Tap Phork It!
Phork It! gets the recipe ready, just like an import: it adds tags and a nutrition estimate. Tap Open recipe when it says "Phorked!".
Generate a recipe with AI
Tell Phork It! what you're in the mood for and it writes a complete recipe for you to check before anything is saved.
Open Generate with AI
On Recipes, tap +, then Generate with AI.
Describe your idea
Under "What would you like to cook?", describe a dish, ingredients you have, or what you're craving. For example: a cozy one-pot dinner with chickpeas and spinach, ready in 30 minutes. Then tap Generate recipe.
Review and refine
Read through the preview: title, servings and times, ingredients, steps, equipment and tips. Want changes? Type them under "What would you change?" (less spicy, make it for two…) and tap Update recipe. If the AI asks a question, answer it and tap Send answer.
Tap Accept recipe
The recipe you see is saved to Recipes and opens. Nothing is saved until you accept.
Good to know
- Descriptions and feedback can be up to 2,000 characters each.
- Start over throws the draft away. Closing the screen on your phone discards it too.
- Generating and editing with AI share an hourly limit. If you hit it, wait a little and try again.
- Generated recipes have no creator credit and no photo. You can add one with Generate photo with AI or Edit.
