How to Get Started with Kkinion: From Choosing Ingredients to Cooking Records
Start by finding a recipe based on ingredients you have, then check the servings and required ingredients before cooking step by step. Afterward, save a recipe you’d like to make again. You don’t need to complete every setup at once—just start with today’s meal.
Before cooking for one
Start with an ingredient you already have, then check the recipe's full ingredient list, quantities and equipment before choosing your meal. For a solo meal, use its one-serving quantities.
You don’t have to put off getting started until you’ve entered everything in your fridge. Choose the ingredients you want to use today and check which ingredients are missing from the recommended recipes. Once you’ve picked a dish you’d actually like to make, check the servings and sauce. A recommended dish may call for additional ingredients, so be sure to read the full ingredient list before tapping the Start button.
1. Choose ingredients you have at home
Select ingredients from My Ingredients to see them reflected in today’s recommendations. Tap the number of missing ingredients on a recipe card to see what else you need. You can also search by recipe name or ingredient.
2. Check the servings and sauce
The same vegetables can taste different with a different dressing. On the details screen, choose the servings and sauce, then check how much you’ll need. If you’d like to make the sauce yourself, you can find the recipe under Make Sauce.
3. Cook one step at a time
The cooking screen shows the current step and an image. If you’re unfamiliar with a preparation technique, expand the detailed instructions. Use the timer for steps that require waiting. For device notifications, check the permission status and test notification under My Info.
4. Save a photo and rating
Take a photo of your finished dish or choose one from your album to add to your cooking record. Save dishes you like to your Recipe Book so you can make them again. When you sign in to your account, you can back up your records and restore them on another device.
Before Moving On in the Cooking Screen, Check Once
Before moving on, check whether you’ve finished the preparation or cooking for the current step. A timer ending doesn’t mean every device and pan will be at the same stage. The option to leave a photo or rating after cooking is a tool for looking back on a meal you made yourself. Keep in mind that leaving a photo is different from publicly posting a recipe.

Full Cooking Instructions
1 step. Rinse the scallion, pat it dry, and cut it into 0.5 cm-wide pieces. Crack the eggs into a small bowl and beat until the whites and yolks are evenly combined.
Check: Cut one scallion stalk lengthwise into 4 pieces; 1 piece is for 1 serving. You can also cut it with scissors.
2 step. Add the cooking oil and scallion to the pan and stir-fry over medium-low heat for 1 minute. Once fragrant, push the scallion to one side, pour in the beaten eggs, and cook while stirring for 2 minutes.
Check: Start the timer after pouring in the beaten eggs. Lower the heat before the scallion turns black. The eggs are ready when no liquid remains. Measure using the same household eating spoon you use at home. Level off the top for sauces and sugar; don’t overfill when measuring liquids. The amount differs from 1 tablespoon measured with a measuring spoon.
3 step. Add rice heated according to the package instructions. Break up any clumps with the tip of a spatula and stir-fry over medium heat for 3 minutes.
Check: 1 serving uses one pack of cooked rice weighing 210 g. Don’t add uncooked rice. Cook 3–4 servings in two batches.
4 step. Drizzle the soy sauce evenly over the rice and mix it in right away. Stir-fry for 1 more minute. Once the rice is hot throughout, turn off the heat and serve.
Check: Don’t pour soy sauce into an empty pan and let it burn. Measure using the same household eating spoon you use at home. Level off the top for sauces and sugar; don’t overfill when measuring liquids. The amount differs from 1 tablespoon measured with a measuring spoon.
