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….
This is much needed good news! All the best for the upcoming busy season. I personally love all your recipe notes, but especially appreciate dietary options/alternatives when suitable. Having followed your blog for many years, I think chapters based on cuisine/country would work really well (e.g. Mexico, Japan, Thailand. Vietnam, Malaysian etc). I can’t wait!!
How wonderful Nagi! ☺️ I love your recipes – all of them but if you could include a section with the all time reader favorites / most popular from your recipes so far, that would be wonderful- a chapter with them all together .
Thanks!
That’s a really good idea!
Your Recipes are so easy and Delicious.
Your Massaman Curry Lamb Shanks won me instantly.
And they were a Huge Hit when I Cooked them for friends in East Lansing Michigan.
I have my RecipeTin Eats cookbook already – two folders full of your recipes! I would love to see feasts of many different kinds!
Magi,congratulations on the book deal!I feel that it is very important to include the carrot cake recipe and the easiest bread recipe!The reasons are obvious.Thanks.
Brilliant news – so pleased for you. Some thoughts….
A photo with every recipe
Make ahead tips
Some recipes with tips for veganizing them
Nutritional info
Some suggested menus for entertaining with a menu plan to help prepare ahead/get organised
I use one of your recipes 5/7 days a week and one that I would love you to do in your book is Beef Wellington which is so old school but I can’t find a perfect recipe for it. You absolutely must include from your existing list Rogan Josh or Beef Rendang. People are always blown away when I make this for them. My friends are addicted to White choc & macadamia cookies because of my constant lockdown baking. Good luck with the book, it will sell out for sure!
Omg Nagi my wish is coming true lve asked you a million times for a cook book it has to had the guiness veggie beef soup , built to last crispy honey chicken,caramel slice,easy soft flatbread, general tso’s chicken,nutella brownies,sticky date pudding, oh and our favourite sticky Chinese chicken wings. I can’t just pick one . And definitely the front cover should be you and Dozer with the heading “My Mum can cook “
Would love vegetarian recipes ( also fish)
Hi Nagi, we lived in Singapore for a year and my son’s favourite treat was Chicken Rice-Singapore style. Would love to have a recipe for one , your take
Anything with ground beef😏
Congrats on the book deal, can’t wait.
Hi Nagi
My friends and I love your recipes. Hard to pin down, but my favourites from you are Butter Chicken and Moussaka. Both recipes that have been “done” by others, but yours are the best. I never use other recipes nowadays. Best wishes to you and Dozer
Amazing!!!! I literally can’t wait!! Our favs in our household are the laksa, red chicken curry, sweet and sour pork, no knead bread, oh the list goes on!!! 🥰
Nagi this is so exciting!
I would like sections by cuisine, even if you do that within each meal type.
Ooh and like the family you talked about in your email, suggestions for a whole feast – so which dishes would go well together
To be honest, whatever you do it will be amazing. Can’t wait!
do you have any no carb recipes? thats where im struggling to make a meal, i seem to be intolerant to starch now.
very exciting news can’t wait put me on your list please would love one book. I can’t tell you my favourite as i love most of your recipes and it would be very hard to chose
I am super excited about this new!!! The website is always open on my iPad. I absolutely love your Asian dishes, more of those would be incredible. But let’s face it, I will buy the book, no matter what is in it. Good luck from N. Ireland !!
I am so pleased – substitutes for GF / common dietary issues. When people first have to navigate intollerance, it can be daunting until you get the hand of it *** -free does not need to be taste-free! . Air-fryer additions are also good.
Lobster risotto please. But old favourites like pulled pork, fish in crazy water, pizza dough, chicken Parma, fish in white wine sauce etc. definitely have to add your salted caramel tart and vanilla cake! I’d happily purchase this book with your current recipes. Maybe add micro nutrients as so many people are using this these days. Definitely keep all the alternatives in your recipes as well.
How exciting for you and your followers!
Love all your recipes!
Can’t wait!
oooo can’t wait! have you got any chutney/jam recipes? I cook so much from you, to the point I get asked if this is ‘Nagi’s’😁
