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!
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!
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!!

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….
I love all your recipes especially any Indonesian dishes as I have Dutch Indonesian family back ground on my fathers side, I definitely be buying this book put me on the list.
Hi Nagi, congratulations on getting a cookbook together. I have attempted to replicate your meals for the past few years now. Your methods and instruction never fail me. Thank you.
Now, I’d really like to see Martabak Manis and Matabak Telur: there’s a two course meal right there. Thank you.
Woo Hoo Congratulations 👏
As to suggestions,
Simple but elegant
Healthy but delicious
I’d love to see an authentic Ramen Noodle broth.
It’s not a recipe but is it possible for thermomix conversions please?
That is awesome news. I love cookbooks and can’t wait to buy yours.
Please have a chapter on quick, delicious meals for when you don’t feel like cooking! Your 12 min broccoli 🥦 pasta has gotten our family through many weekday nights so would LOVE more recipes like these.
Roasts , any noodles , any fried rice.
Actually include all your recipes from recipe tin
I love all your recipes Nagi, but I think you need to include your Slow Cooked Beef Tacos. I am cooking a big batch now, they are sooo delicious! Very versatile and simple to make. Thank you
I can’t wait for this cook book. I love your food blog and get excited when I receive your recipies. Thank you. In the cook book…..for me….ANYTHING ASIAN!!! with unami!!!
Teriyaki pork burgers
Cuisines from different countries
Hi Nagi,
Massive congratulations – I will be demanding a copy of the book as a Xmas gift / birthday gift, depending on when it comes out.
I love your recipes for the subs and tricks, and just the way you explain things – you have a way of making cooking less daunting for us mere mortals, (I made your chicken biryani recently and went with the suggested ‘cheeky sub’ of a packet of fried shallots and it was so, so good!)
Since becoming a fan of recipetineats, my pantry has swelled with spices and sauces and such. I found your post ‘Asian market shopping list’ super helpful, too – including things like that in your cook book would be great. And pics of Dozer, of course!
Congrats again – can’t wait to see the end result.
Congratulations on producing your first printed recipe book. I will definitely buy it. I always go to your site first when looking for a good, practical, easy, and especially TASTY recipe!
Love your recipes! Find a lot of diversification. Please more easy, quick meals. Vegetarien, chicken, seafood, beef, light deserts. Everything is so delicious. Am happy to have your recipes! Would not miss anyone. Thanks for sharing!
Recipes that use just a few simple and cheap ingredients. Having a daughter moving in to University student halls and will have just one small cupboard in the kitchen and a son moving in to a tiny apartment they will both have limited space for cooking equipment and ingredients. So simple cheap and tasty recipes would be great! Ok the book wouldn’t be in time for them to use but would be good for others.
BBQ pulled pork & slow cooked BBQ brisket are my go to favs 🥰
Your recipes have never failed me so where to start?! The focaccia recipe surprised me the most on how EASY and delicious!
I love your recipe I’ve learnt so much with your reasoning and methods. My daughter loves your recipe now too. Your Lamb shanks in red wine one of my family favourites
I think you should just transfer your whole recipe tin eats website into your new cookbook!! It’s got absolutely everything! I don’t use any other recipe site. Thank you for making cooking such a pleasure and all the very best for your cookbook! Hope it will be available here in South Africa?
I am really loving the one pot recipes…but anything you do is wonderful…..looking forward to the book
You definitely need to include the sexy lentil salad. My friends always ask me to make this for them. Hope you are doing ok. Lockdown is so depressing. We have had over 230 days here Melbourne. Also thank you for providing meals to those in need. You truly are a star Nagi.
