What is it?

Tandoor Recipes is a self-hosted web application for keeping a growing collection of digital recipes organized. Recipes can be grouped into cookbooks, tagged, searched with full-text and fuzzy matching, and imported from websites that publish schema.org Recipe data.

Beyond storage, it covers meal planning across multiple meals per day and builds shopping lists either from a meal plan or directly from selected recipes. Ingredient quantities support fractions and decimals, and recipes can be scaled. Optional AI features can recognize recipe images, sort steps and look up nutrition facts.

The interface is designed to work on mobile devices and is localized into many languages. It is set up with Docker, with example configurations for Kubernetes, Unraid and Synology, and it can sync files with Dropbox and Nextcloud. It is intended for sharing among family and friends rather than running as a public site.
