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….
Hi dozer and nagi.
I think alot of people are doing it tough, so any recipes that’s easy on the purse. Chicken and pork are our cheapest meats, even sausages,braised,curried, decostructed burgers
Thanks for your great recipes
hi Nagi
Good news for us. A daunting task indeed
I would really love recipes that can indicate if they can be made ahead.
For example. Feeding a group of people and knowing which parts can be made day ahead/ frozen or whatever. So there isn’t a lot of work on the day.
Doesn’t have to have own section but notes at the bottom of each recipe.
Also perhaps sample menus?
So very exciting! I will take two, one for us and one for my mother-in-law. Bravo, this is fabulous!!
all possible chinese sauces
I’ll buy your book no matter what recipes it contains, your recipe blog is the best around. Every recipe is so detailed that there is no reason to have to ask any questions. Good luck with the book Nagi, you will nail it.
Hey Nagi, slow cooked Beef Ragu Pasta!
Poached Chicken!
Looking forward to seeing your cookbook available! I save most of the one’s you post! Hope it’s available in the United States.
I have so been waiting for this. So happy and excited for you and I will most definitely be buying your book.
You have already had an overwhelming response, my hopes would be for vegetarian / dairy free or vegan … or adaptations for these options in other recipes. Brave lady – you have taken on a huge task, I know I will look forward to the finished product.
Congratulations Nagi!
Whatever recipes you decide to publish, I will be buying this cookbook and I know already that it will be my favourite.
I hope you include your recipe notes in the cookbook, they are invaluable.
Hi Nagi, congratulations!!! This is so exciting, you deserve it. I can’t wait for your book. You’ve given me a love of cooking. All your tips and videos very helpful. I’ve tried so many of your recipes and loving them all. I look forward to your mail, it makes my day. Thankyou! Love to you and Doser. Xx
Yay!
Agree with other comments, family meals! Also love that you have a wide range of flavours, Asian, Italian, Vegetarian…… Goodluck with it
I love all your recipes and will be happy with the book.
Honey and garlic chicken is a fav though. Thank you.
FANTASTIC news!!
The answer to the recipe inclusions is easy – EVERYTHING!
Congratulations can’t wait for it. Please include San Chow Bwoy and Meatloaf ( for those ground beef folk)
If you can do kirimochi from scratch would be great! Also I would love to see all measurements in metric (no tsp no table spoons for measurement also for small amount of ingredients!) because scales is not sensitive when it comes to measuring small amount. Just imagine measure baking powder and dry yeast wrong….. things will explode, and that is my fear as a person new to baking and cooking and have very little idea when trying to executing the recipe. Oh, and more photos please for easy following steps.
Yay!! This is so exciting!!
I love your one pot Greek chicken and would love to see some more one pot recipes! I’d also love to see some healthy quick mid week dinner recipes too! 😉
Oh Wow! Definitely Moqueca Baiana, Brazilian Coconut Chickpea Curry, and Mexican Meatballs. There’s a theme there! Love, love, love them!
Fill the cookbook with Thai and Chinese recipes. what you have published so far have been excellent
Would love some simple, very simple recipes for one (or would settle for recipes for two then have half now and half later).
Homemade gourmet crackers with cranberries and seeds.
These are so good and lots of friends have asked for the recipe
