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….
Baked risotto
Butter chicken
Homemade crumpets
And everything else.
I actually like the book cover. It makes it feel personal.
Yay! Best news! One pot wonders for busy families would be amazing! Simple, quick but full of flavour as your dishes always are!
Whether the recipes can be frozen, adjustments to the recipes so they can be made either bigger or smaller serves. Hints on varying the recipes.
Hi Nagi can’t wait! For me, one of the best things about your recipes are the cooking notes you have. What to do with left overs, how to freeze/reheat the meals, what alternative ingredients you can use – it’s brilliant! I love your videos as well. As someone who has made an ebook from my blog, I’ve included embedded videos, or these days maybe QR codes, so that you can read the recipe in the book, but then watch a video that supports it as well. Anyway, can’t wait to see what you do!
Congratulations- I love love love so many of your recipes! The thing I make/eat/chug a minimum five days a week is your Asian dressing!!! I have it jotted down on a post-it stuck in my vinegar cupboard. I’d love a few pages dedicated to vinaigrette’s and sauces. I had your Char Sui pork yesterday after a 3 day marinade and OMG!
Fantastic news! I’ve been SO hoping that you would do a cookbook! Actually, I love ALL your recipes, and would definitely buy it based on the fantastic recipes you have already shared with us. How wonderful to have them all in one book, ready to hand in the kitchen. Can’t wait to see it!
Nagi,
Your Chicken Burritos with the recipe for Mexican red rice,no one wants take away Mexican after having these beauties.
Hey, excited about new recipes but hoping to still find the go too ones, spag bol, Guinness stew, fajitas, Mediterranean pasta salad to name a few. More slow cooker recipes would be awesome and maybe a page or two of some dozer friendly treats. Not as much the huge cakes but some dog friendly snacks.
Good luck with it all,
Thanks for everything
Hurray!! This is the best news! Please include your amazing one pot chicken and rice dishes- and all the different varieties. And the great one pot recipes- curries; easy, best-ever versions of classics; and def the slow cooker ones. Thank you for undertaking this mammoth task- please, please make sure we can get in the UK. Woo hoo!
Definitely keep true to your hints. Tips, subs and notes that make your recipes so replicable. Tips on freezing and preparing ahead too.
And make it really clear the time stuff takes and any prepare ahead bits.
Would love in it:
-oven baked chicken
-garlic kale rice
-French carrot salad
-veggie burgers
-a couple of new adaptable to vegan recipes
I love all your recipes but I really love all the method tips and substitute info that comes with each recipe. So helpful!
Congratulations!! Love all your recipes! I’d love some “Make in advance Cooking for a Crowd” recipes. I love entertaining, but I don’t want to be stuck in the kitchen missing out on the fun!!

Please, please, please include Goan Fish Curry and Palak Paneer and Eggplant Parmigiana and maple glazed ham and your meringue christmas tree and…umm….perhaps all your recipes?

I’d love a section on ‘cooking for a crowd’.
Love having people over (obviously not at the moment… but when life goes back to normal) but some recipes that say feed 15-20 people…
Love your work Nagi xx
