Draw a recipe for ingredients already in the fridge

Use described publicly by LinkedIn — Éric Nguyen (21 June 2025), summarised by the desk. Not tested by iadujour.

The result to aim for

Eric Nguyen glued to ChatGPT what he had under his hand: shiitak mushrooms, peppers, eggs. The tool offered scrambled eggs and sautéed vegetables, soy sauce and sesame. He cooked the dish: "it's eaten."

What was done

LinkedIn (Éric Nguyen, 21 June 2025). Distinct from Illies (photo of the fridge, other URL) and from Aizpitarte (tartelettes). Here the gesture is the recipe from three ingredients, cooked. No kitchen photos are to be taken.

Your starting point.

Replace the bracketed items, then adapt the proposal to your situation. This prompt is written by the iadujour desk It is not a quotation from the source.

The prompt to customise

Offer 1 dish. List the steps. Adds no ingredients except salt, pepper, oil, soy, sesame. Distinguish what is a suggestion.

What deserves your attention

A generated recipe is not a package leaflet. Cut the cooking times, and do not stick nominative allergy in a general public account.
