Cook 3 meals, get paid

Rules

General

  • Cook at least 3 main dishes typical of your country.
  • Main dishes only, no desserts.
  • Have a food scale and measuring cup.
  • Smartphone only, no studio lighting.
  • Tap the food on screen to focus on the food, not the background.
  • No blurry, overexposed, or underexposed images.
  • Subject fully in frame.
  • Non-packaged, real-world food only.
  • One dish per photo, no side dishes in the photo or ingredient list.

Ingredients

  • Peel first: garlic, onions, potatoes, carrots, ginger.
  • Weigh only the edible part. Crack eggs into a bowl. No shells, stems, or waste.
  • One ingredient per row. Use exact names — no "Garnish", no "seasoning powder", no combos.
  • List everything in the dish — including water, salt, and oil.

Weights

  • Weigh each ingredient individually on the scale, one at a time.
  • All water and liquids must be weighed on the scale — water, oil, milk, broth, sauces. Weigh in a container with the container weight removed (tare). Never measure liquids by volume (no cups or spoons). Same for dry ingredients — never use measuring cups.
  • Take photo with ingredient on scale with scale weight clearly visible.
  • Then take a second, separate photo of the same ingredient off the scale. This must be a new photo taken with your camera — cropped or edited copies are not accepted.
  • Enter the exact weight of every ingredient, in grams.
  • Weigh during meal prep, not estimated after.
  • Tare before every weigh. The scale must show only the ingredient's weight — never 0, never with the container.
  • Put the plate, bowl, or measuring cup on the scale and select to remove that weight (tare). Then add the ingredient.

Completed dish

  • Weigh the full finished recipe in the bowl or pot.
  • Remove one serving and record its weight.
  • Take a photo of the whole finished dish (multi serving). Take it off the scale, with no scale visible in the photo.
  • Take a separate photo of the single serving. Also off the scale, with no scale visible in the photo.
  • Video MUST be of the single serving plate. Record 3 to 5 seconds of the plated single serving only — not the whole dish.
  • Record the number of servings in the whole dish.
  • The single-serving photo and full-recipe photo must be different photos.
  • Every main ingredient must be visible in the full-recipe photo and video.
WarningAny rules not followed can lead to a rejection.

Ingredients
Ingredient photos
For each ingredient, take TWO separate photos with your camera: (1) an on-scale photo with the weight clearly readable (photos where it isn't are rejected), and (2) a second photo off the scale with the whole ingredient visible. Cropped or edited copies are not accepted — both must be real camera photos.
Photo of the completed dish (multi serving)
The whole finished dish, taken off the scale. No scale visible in this photo.
