Build your
dabba. We'll find
the recipe.

Pick a dish, add your extras, and build a balanced dabba. One tap opens YouTube with a recipe that matches your exact build — the world's biggest kitchen, on demand.

How it works

Four steps. One balanced dabba.

No accounts, no recipes to scroll through, no nutrition homework. You make the choices — YouTube does the cooking.

01

Pick a dish

Thirty-plus meal ideas, from poha bowls to loaded potato. The dish is your starting point — one base sets what kind of meal you're building.

02

Add your extras

Add a protein, produce, carb and flavour extras. Base, protein and carb hold one pick each — that's how real meals work — while produce and flavour stack as much as you like.

03

Check your balance

The score is fully transparent: each of the five roles you cover (base, protein, produce, carb, flavour) adds points — cover all five and you hit A+ territory. Extra produce or flavour picks add a small bonus. It's not a health rating, and it has nothing to do with calories — it only answers one question: did your dabba include every food group a real meal needs?

04

Open on YouTube

One button opens YouTube with a search built from your exact picks — dish, extras and all. We never host recipes; the world's biggest kitchen handles that. You'll usually land on the closest match rather than an exact copy — tweak the search if you want something different.
