Burcina: Your Own Sous Chef
Cook Any Dish with Confidence
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Any cuisine. Any ingredient. Any craving. Snap ingredients, cook hands-free with voice mode, and plan your week — with a sous chef that remembers how you eat.
Burcina is your personal culinary companion — part recipe creator, part sous chef, part meal planner. Tell it what you're craving, what's in your fridge, or snap a photo of ingredients, and it creates recipes worth cooking from scratch.
SNAP & COOK
Take a photo of ingredients on your counter or a dish at a restaurant — Burcina identifies what it sees and generates a recipe to match. See something incredible at dinner? Snap it. Burcina will help you recreate it at home.
LIVE COOKING MODE
Cook hands-free with voice-guided step-by-step instructions. Burcina reads each step aloud, waits for you, and moves on when you're ready. Built-in timers start automatically. It's like having a patient sous chef standing next to you.
ASK CHEF
Got a question mid-cook? "Can I swap butter for olive oil?" "How do I know when the onions are ready?" Ask Chef answers in real time — by text or voice — without leaving the recipe. No more Googling with flour on your hands.
ORIGINAL RECIPES, ON DEMAND
Describe what you want — a cuisine, a craving, a time limit, a dietary need — and Burcina writes you an original recipe from scratch. Every recipe includes full nutritional breakdown per serving (calories, protein, carbs, fat), built-in timers for every step, and storage and shelf life recommendations for leftovers.
MEAL PLANNING & SMART SHOPPING
Plan your week with a personalised meal plan based on your preferences. Burcina automatically builds a shopping list from your planned recipes, grouped and ready for the store. Cook from what you already have — tell Burcina what's in your pantry and it'll prioritise ingredients you need to use up.
COMMUNITY RECIPES
Browse recipes shared by other Burcina cooks. Find inspiration from real people cooking real meals — not sponsored content or SEO-stuffed blog posts.
YOUR PRIVATE COOKBOOK
Save every recipe you create or discover. Rate them, add personal notes, and build a collection that's uniquely yours. Your recipes, your data — delete everything from inside the app any time.
REMEMBERS HOW YOU EAT
Set your dietary profile once — allergies, intolerances, dislikes, preferences — and every recipe Burcina generates respects it automatically. Vegan, gluten-free, low-sodium, halal, keto — whatever you need.
DESIGNED LIKE A FOOD MAGAZINE
Editorial typography, calm colours, beautiful recipe cards. Burcina is built to feel like a premium cookbook, not a cluttered database. No ads, no engagement tricks, no autoplaying videos.
Free to try. Pro unlocks 100 recipe generations per month and access to full features.
