Thanks to the rise of the Apple App Store and Android Marketplace, trying something new in the kitchen is easier than ever before. Rather than having to spend out £20 on a book, or bring your laptop into the kitchen, recipe apps give you access to more meal ideas than ever before, and often for free. Here is a selection of some of our favourites.

Winner of countless awards, the Epicurious app allows you to browse, search, save and share over 30,000 professionally created meal and cocktail recipes. UK cooks may need a little help translating American measurements, but as recipe apps go, Epicurious has the most comprehensive selection.
