The short of it
Paprika is our favourite home cooking app.
If you love great food and like saving money, it’s a no brainer.
Bothered?
Paprika makes collecting your favourite recipes a piece of cake.
You’ll become more organised by planning your meals and building a shopping list with only the items you actually need. No more overspending at the supermarket.
Party trick?
Ever bought herbs and spices you didn’t need because you didn’t realise you had them in? Paprika’s Pantry feature is a godsend.
Once you’ve entered the contents of your store cupboard, the app automatically removes surplus-to-requirements ingredients from your shopping list. Never duplicate on herbs again.

What else?
Collecting and storing recipes can be a pain. With Paprika you simply browse to a food website, click and the app does all the hard work for you.
Less time copying and pasting means more time for cooking and eating.
What’s wrong with it?
Be prepared to invest a lot of time importing your recipes. The more you work at it, the better the app gets.

And?
There’s a brilliant feature for scaling up recipes – handy if you’re preparing extra portions for lunch later in the week.
But annoyingly, this messes up Paprika’s usually on pointe functions for planning your meals across the week.
How much is this going to cost me?
This app is not cheap.
You’ll need separate versions for your smartphone (£3.99), tablet (£3.99) and your computer (£14.99). Think of it like investing in a cook book.
Our take
For an app, this is one expensive investment. But for the price of one takeaway, it can save you hundreds of pounds in wasted food.
For foodies, Paprika is a must-buy.
