      Hi Aarthi!
      You are doing an amazing job.. my one request..
      Is there any way I could directly reach the recipe without going through other similar recipes introduction? When we scroll down on the regular phone., it's like we have to scroll down a little longer (seems longer when we are in a hurry). So would you please provide an option at the beginning which takes us directly to the recipe..? Kindly consider if it's okay with you. Thank you!!
