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….
Curries! Beef cheeks! Anything slow cooked.
I would also like to see traybake meals weekend breakfasts picnic food and quick meals for the working week when you just can’t summons up a lot of energy. Mind you I will buy it no matter what as I love I am a big fan of your tasty workable recipes and have been for years.
I love all your recipes. I would love it if you would include how to convert the recipe to GF. Also it would be wonderful if you included themed feasts.
I love all of your recipes so will be very keen to buy your new book, so exciting for you. I’d like to see some healthy/healthyish bake ideas included please i.e. low sugar/sugar alternatives. Thanks
Sweet and sour fish or chicken, please include all our favourites as I’m sick of refreshing my phone to read the recipes, a hard copy of all our faves and more would be awsome, I can’t wait to buy it😂thank you
I love your Curried Sausages and Cottage Pie. Definitely include Charlie! And I love your Noodle Soup.
Slow cooker recipes sweet or savoury.
This is amazing! I would love the 3 ingredient scones, extra crunchy potatoes and slow cooked lamb shoulder. No matter what goes on this cookbook, it will be a must have in the kitchen!
Congratulations to you! This is so exciting.
Hi Nagi
I love your recipes. I would love a yummy savoury mince recipe. When I was younger we used to have savoury mince in fresh bread rolls. They were so yummy. Haven’t found a recipe that tasted the same.
I am sooo excited to see what this amazing cookbook will look like. I love all your recipes and everyone always asks when I make something new, “is this from Navi’s website” as they think your recipes are the next level.
I would love it if you could include “make ahead instructions”. If I have people over for dinner, it is so helpful not having to make everything on the same day. Wishing you so much success in everything you do as you have certainly made a lot of people better cooks. Keep smiling!
I’d love a section where you can make bulk recipes to freeze/meal prep. Also easy Asian stir fry’s
I’m ready to buy it! How exciting! Whatever you put in the book will be amazing, but if I had to add something – some cake and biscuit ideas would be great.
I’d love a cheats simple section for those quick recipes of yours that are so versatile and need minimal instructions eg the dressing on the sesame salmon recipe, Asian steak sauce, etc: I currently have these jotted inside my pantry as quick access for during the week.
Love love love all your recipes! I know it’s not your primary audience but healthy snacks for young kids would be great too (my boys looove your broccoli balls and so good for them ❤️)
Please include our favorite, most used recipe:
PASTA ALLA NORMA
Please continue giving us your detailed instructions, hints, suggestions, etc. Your narratives are the best of any recipe website!
Great idea Nagi, I’m sure is will be a roaring success! Would love to see directions for making “Popiah”. I don’t think it’s very difficult just fiddle, but Oh SO yummy!!
Please include all your seasoning mixes and marinades… And please include ‘Bacon wrapped chicken’ – it was the first recipe of yours I tried, and was hooked..
I’d love to see pork&beans in the book!!
Tasty Vegetarian meals like your burger recipe ❤️
would love your take on the good old aussie spag bol please. 🙂
