Restaurants & cafés: recipe costing
Recipe costing and batch production for restaurant kitchens
TajerGo costs each dish from the stock items and units in its recipe, using your current ingredient costs, and flags any line that is not mapped. Plan batches of dough, sauces and bases from an approved recipe, record what the kitchen actually used and produced, and review yield and cost per unit batch by batch.
Step by step
How it works
Map each ingredient
Link every recipe line to a stock item and unit; a carton or a litre becomes the grams or pieces the dish uses.
Ingredient lines of a shawarma plate stack into the plate cost Plan the batch
Create a dough or sauce batch for one branch from the approved recipe, with the output you want.
Demonstration data Record use and output
The kitchen records materials used, good output and process waste; real quantities, not assumptions.
Demonstration data Compare plan and result
Planned against good output, yield difference and cost per unit, batch by batch.

What you can do
Plate cost from your prices
Every recipe line is costed from your own stock records, and unmapped lines stay flagged.
Unit conversion
Purchase units convert to recipe units, so supplier cartons and kitchen grams agree.
Batch production
Plan and record batches of dough, sauces and bases with materials, output and waste.
Yield and cost per unit
See where a batch lost yield and what each unit really cost.
AI recipe draft for the chef
Type a dish name and get a draft recipe; the chef corrects and approves it before use.

Frequently asked questions
How is a dish cost calculated?
From the mapped ingredient quantities, units and your current cost records. Missing or old costs change the result, so keep receiving up to date.
Can we cost dough or sauce made in advance?
Yes. Plan it as a batch, record what was used and produced, and the batch cost per unit is kept.
Does completing a batch update stock?
Completing a batch records the confirmed material use and output in stock, with the right permissions.
Does the AI decide our recipes?
No. It drafts a starting point. Your chef confirms ingredients, allergens and real quantities.
