You open your refrigerator on a lazy, Sunday afternoon, and you think?

Simple. You flip out your phone and say in a calm voice,

?Make My Dish with onions and capsicums?

AND BOOM!!!!

Just enter as many ingredients as you want, and Make My Dish will search for related recipes and present them in a neat, clean, and easily understandable form. You can also add various filters to refine your search.

I'm guessing it's because there will need to be some translation work to provide a UK version. There are a lot of food ingredient language differences between UK and US, more than in the general usage of the language. For instance, being from the UK if someone were to say "zucchini" to me I'd reply with "bless you".
 
I can't seem to get it to work. I didn't use the speech but manually entered ingredients such as lettuce, tomatoes, chicken breasts, ground beef, basmati rice, eggs, milk, and various spices and it won't find any results. I even added onions and capsicum like in your example and still when I search it still says "Sorry! No Results found."

EDIT: Okay, I think I found the problem. It needs to use ALL of the ingredients listed, correct?

Don't know what part of the UK you are from then lol, I am also from the UK and if someone said Zucchini to me I would search for it on the internet and say oh you mean Courgette. Zucchini doesn't mean 'achoo' anywhere in the UK that I have been lol.
 
Why not English UK? :'(
for the voice commands to work, the app needs to install the commands when the user first starts the app. installing just two languages takes so much time, so adding more will take a lot of unnecessary time. This got ne thinking though. I can add an option to choose which language to install when the user starts the app. It'll be there in the next version. :)

Yes, searching for so many ingredients won't work. It needs to use all ingredients. Try searching for a few main ingredients. You will get results if you search for ground beef and basmati rice. Let me know if you have any other questions. :)
