SURPRISE! I’ve signed a contract for a RecipeTin cookbook! But this won’t be just another cookbook……This is going to be a cookbook filled with new recipes YOU ask for.

Let’s make this cookbook OURS!

RecipeTin Eats Cookbook Announcement

PS That’s just a mock cover!!

Finally – a cookbook!

This is real – a RecipeTin cookbook is happening! I’m committed – I can’t back out, I’ve signed a publishing contract with Pan Macmillan, a big name publishing house here in Australia.

Excited, nervous, daunted, scared…. all these words come to mind as I sit here, preparing myself for what will be the the most important and biggest project I have ever undertaken in my professional life.

Which brings me to the main purpose of sharing this news….

I want to make this cookbook WITH you, FOR you!

Let’s fill these pages with recipes YOU want! Mostly new, but even some favourites from the website!

RecipeTin Eats Cookbook Announcement

I’m going to be completely honest with you. I am under no illusion about how much work it will take to make a cookbook.

So for me to make this cookbook for myself, because, well, you know, it is kind of an ego boost to see your name on a printed book. That’s not enough motivation for me. I don’t deserve it! 😂

If, on the other hand, I make it for you…….. now THAT is what I call motivation. That gets me excited. That is what will give me the incentive to give this cookbook everything I’ve got, to make it the best it can be.

I want to make a cookbook that you will actually use all the time, rather than gathering dust on the bookshelf.

So tell me what you want in our cookbook! What type of recipes, even little details like adding nutrition information, storage and make ahead tips, or key dietary notes (like gluten free).

They will mostly be new recipes that are exclusively made for the cookbook though I will also include some long standing reader favourites from the website!

Let’s make this cookbook together. Leave your cookbook wish list in the comments section below!!

– Nagi x

PS Reminder – this cover is a fake!! 😂 You know full well I am going to ask for your opinion when choosing the real cover. ❤️

Life of Dozer

I know today’s big announcement is all about me, me, me. But that’s no excuse to skip a Dozer update! Here he is, disrespecting my cookbook already. Or possibly just thinks the photo is real food. It could be either. 🙄

Though he has already expressed he is willing and able to help in any way possible with the cookbook. Thanks Dozer! We all know what your “help” involves….

Hi, I'm Nagi!

I believe you can make great food with everyday ingredients even if you’re short on time and cost conscious. You just need to cook clever and get creative!

    Hands down- Laksa Noodle Soup. I have shared your recipe every time I make this. Our whole extended family love it. I have become famous for MY 😉 Recipetineats Laksa Noodle Soup. I am so excited that you are doing a recipe book. After Dozer, our family are your biggest fans. Thank you so much for doing what you do. 🤗

    Hi Nagi. I would love to see some high protein, low carb recipes. I would also love to see quick, healthy midweek recipes to cook after working all day. Good luck with the cookbook.

    Beaut Nagi, just keep doing everything that you already do please.
    For us blokes and dogs who live out in the weeds without access to some ingredients, such as Japanese Seaweed Salad any direction to lead us to where we could find the items on line in Australia to make the recipe, and the recipe would be appreciated.
    Cheers,
    Both of us

    How exciting for you! I can’t wait to buy the end product!
    I would love to see in the book:
    – Nutritional information
    – Tips on how you could modify the recipe to make it even healthier
    – How long it will last once made
    – Can it be frozen
    – Can it be doubled
    – Key dietary notes (GF/DF/Diabetic Friendly etc)
    – Tips on what else you could make from this one recipe, by changing it slightly (or just a section on a few recipes that are interchangeable like that)
    – I’d also love if there were recipes that you could cook for when friends come over that you’ve largely made it (or just elements of it) the day(s) before, so you get more time socialising with your friends on the night and less time standing in the kitchen. Or when you are in lockdown (yet again!) and so have time to load the freezer up with foods/elements of foods so that when you go back to a busy life, tasty meals are easier to pull together
    – Long lasting/make ahead salads that you could throw together on a Sunday and have them ready for lunchboxes/dinners for the week
    I clearly don’t ask for much, do I?!!
    Good luck!

    Nagi, I forgot to add that I hope this will be available in the USA. Please try to broker that into your deal. Maybe on Amazon?? Got my fingers crossed.

    Hi Nagi, congratulations! Well deserved. Recipes I absolutely love are your curries! Red thai curry paste, massaman, chicken tikka, butter chicken. I could have a cookbook full of those kind of recipes 🙂

    Congratulations Nagi – this is so well deserved! I absolutely love your Indian and Thai curry dishes and get so many compliments when I cook them. I’d love to see more curry recipes in your book please.

    This is awesome news!!! You are my go to for anything new to try or bettering old favourites!! Have not tried a recipe that I didn’t love.
    Your Rogan Josh is what my parents ask for if I’m cooking them dinner and no matter how many times I make it, they still can’t get over how tasty it is!!
    I’d love to see Hungarian paprika chicken, but will be happy with whatever is in your book & it will most definitely be a must have.
    Congratulations

    Love your emails, always read them. I like tray bakes and quick meals. Getting too old to spend too much time in the kitchen! Definitely not a vegan.
