Interactive Chef

• Interactive Chef allows users to view and add recipes with a twist.
• Navigating through recipe ingredients and steps is made possible using voice commands.
• If you have ever followed a recipe online you've probably tried to scroll through the recipe steps
  while trying to avoid touching your expensive device with dirty hands!
