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!

    A section on vegetarian recipes would be great. Not laden with eggs. Just good easy recipes.

    Thrilled! This will be bought for all of my family and friends and hopefully they will discover the wonderful website too! Could each recipe please immortalise Dozer like the website does? The slow cooked meats are my faves but also cottage pie and also please include your tips and substitutes they are a lifesaver.

    I will definitely buy your cook book! I love so many of your recipes, especially the Asian ones. I have learnt to cook Asian food following your recipes. They are simple and tasty. I made the blueberry yoghurt cake this weekend and it was moist and delicious. Looking forward to the book!

    Hi Nagi,
    These are a couple of my favourites for weeknight cooking and l make extra and freeze them, especially with lockdown and a house full of hungry boys.
    Chicken Shawarma (Middle Eastern)
    Lamb Koftas with yoghurt dressing and for dessert
    Blueberry Lemon Yoghurt cake
    Love the idea, not an easy task for us as l love all your recipes
    And of course photos of Dozer 💕💕💕

    A recipe for sourdough bread please! I know there are a million of them online but making sourdough is a lot of work so I need a recipe I can trust.

    Congratulations Nagi!

    Can you do 2 cookbooks – one with all the website favourites and one with new recipes!?

    I would love a custard tart recipe, apple and rhubarb pie, and some vegetarian weeknight recipes along with chicken vol-a-vents and more of your fabulous soups!!

    Thanks and good luck

    Dear Nagi, can I put forward a plea that your book is not the usual cookbook, but a manual? That is a working book, with a section per recipe for my own notes and changes, also who I made the dish for, so I don’t give guests the same dish twice, but more importantly, if the print could be of a size that is lager than the average novel? I find myself always squinting at recipes, so annoying.
    I love all your recipes, so what ever you include please keep the notes! I have learnt so much more about food and techniques since I followed your blog. I hope you don’t mind my recipe book rant!

    Oh Nagi, what just absolutely
    amazing news!
    Congratulations…
    I have been using your gorgeous recipes for a while now, my daughter moved out beginning of this year and now loves Recipetineats.
    We will love any recipes and will also be fantastic to have them in book form as internet has not been kind sometimes.

    Hi Nagi, I enjoy lots of your recipes but the one I like best is the Baked Mediterranean Chicken Dinner. It’s not a flash dinner but it tastes great and is an easy mid week dinner. I definitely think the recipe deserves to go in your cookbook. Congratulations by the way on signing up for it!

    I really love ingredient swaps. I live in a rural town with 1 small supermarket, so listing ‘swaps’ for more unusual or ‘exotic’ ingredients is really helpful. Finger food/canape recipes.

    Hi Nagi
    So please you are going to put together a book!
    Would love it if you could include the making ahead and storage info. I have two small children so always looking for batch cooking alternatives to bolognaise or chilli!
    Thank you!

    Honey garlic chic breast, spinach and ricotta rotolo, swedish meatballs, any mexican or asian recipes, lemon and herb risotto, oh Nagi! I want them all, don’t make me choose! So many recipes, this better be a very thick book with thousands of pages!!
