Not what is in the cupboard. What you feel like.

Pick more than one if you like. Every result says what it was matched on: the taste model is an estimate, the time is the number the recipe itself states, and the weight is energy computed from the ingredient list.

Vermicelli soup

A childhood soup and a fifteen-minute rescue. Toasting the vermicelli is the whole recipe.

15 min taste 86 149 kcal

Tomato soup

The taste of this soup is the taste of the tomato, which means a bad tomato cannot make a good one. In winter use paste and wait for the season.

30 min taste 85 143 kcal

Broccoli soup

One rule for keeping it green: no lid, and not a minute over eight.

30 min taste 83 152 kcal

Flour soup

Three ingredients — flour, butter, water — and all of the flavour is in how long the flour is toasted.

20 min taste 80 146 kcal

Buttered pilaf

Separate grains are not a recipe but two steps: rinse it, and leave the lid alone.

30 min taste 81 346 kcal

Porridge

Five minutes, of which the first one decides everything: the oats go into cold liquid, never into boiling.

10 min taste 82 423 kcal

Menemen

Pepper, tomato and egg. Know the order and the heat and it takes fifteen minutes; miss them and you get a watery omelette.

15 min taste 78 299 kcal

Pasta with tomato paste

There is no sauce until the paste has been fried: raw paste stays sour and metallic.

20 min taste 85 570 kcal

Çılbır

Poached eggs on garlicky yoghurt, finished with butter sizzled with chilli. Three temperatures stacked: warm yoghurt, running yolk, scalding fat.
