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!

    Hi Nagi,
    Live your recipes & I think ‘our’ cookbook should definitely include your fabulous chocolate cake. Best, easiest choc cake of all time. Cheers

    I would love a few one tray or pot meals for busy nights. The idea of a few easy lunch meals that are doable not made of exotic ingredients.
    Congratulations on proving your very own cook book I will be buying my copy as soon as it is available!😃

    Your Asian-based recipes from Singapore, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, etc would be great as there are no great cookbooks for the “lesser” known Asian cuisines. Congrats on getting the book deal! Banzai! Ganbare!!

    Hi Nagi.
    I am so happy to hear you are doing a cookbook. I hope it comes to Canada.
    I would love your.Mac and a cheese recipe in there. Absolutely the best recipe ever! Every recipe I have tried of yours is delicious. I think Dozer should be on the cover as well. I look forward to hearing little stories about him on your posts. Thank you for sharing your talent.

    The air fryer is here to stay, I think. I love what it does. Could you explore some recipes for this machine…beyond the simple breaded chicken and fish? I’d love to see this appliance used more creatively.

    ALL your recipes, of course!
    You are my “go to girl” whenever I want a recipe… having your wonderful recipes in a BOOK would be not only the icing on the cake but the cherry on top!

    Congratulations Nagi! How about writing a chapter dedicated only to ground beef? (wink wink). LMAO! But really, that red ribbon thingy suggested by one of your readers would be cool. And perhaps more make-ahead meals?

    Congratulations this is so exciting! I’ve loved every recipe I’ve tried from your website so I know the book is going to be fabulous.
    I really love the notes at the end of each recipe. I learn a lot from those notes!
    I would love some make ahead recipes as I have young ones and a busy job. These types of recipes will help us to stay on track and not end up with hangry kids 🙂

    Your carrot cake is the best I’ve ever had – I know it’s not new but it should be in the book ! Other than that, simple stuff is what I’m always looking for 😊

    Congrats Nagi!
    I would like to ask for Lemon crepe cake, Swiss rolls, Portuguese tart, Macaron, Basque cheesecake, fruit tarts, (Yes we are sweet teeth!)
    I do like your meal recipes too but if we could ask for some quick meals for family with young kids including recipes to cook in airfryer that will be fantastic!

    Congrats Nagi! Yes, the make ahead and storage tips are a real differentiator! Other websites tend to end with ‘serve immediately’ but irl, we can’t make multiple dishes and serve them immediately.

    I’m so excited! I would love for you to include nutritional info, some make ahead and/or freezer-friendly recipes, & “quick” recipes for busy nights. Also, since this is a book I plan to use a lot and not just have it look pretty on a shelf, I would appreciate a spiral binding (with a cover over it that looks traditionally bound) so it lies flat when open. Thank you & I hope you have fun with this process!

    Thank you so much for bringing sunshine into my kitchen. Love your passion for food as I am the same. We enjoy all cuisines but especially love Asian inspired food. Only thing is we don’t like coriander. Anything salt pepper and chilli we love. Thanks again 🙏
