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….
Congratulations! This is awesome. I can’t wait.
You already have so many great recipes, but I don’t think you’ve done banana bread yet. I enjoy banana bread, but every recipe I make is a bust. I know you’d have a perfect recipe for this treat!
Would you be able to include Christmas; cakes; Thanksgiving; Easter; Good idea compiling everything into a cookbook
About time!! I cant wait!!
I would love some Asian recipes because I’m Vietnamese-Australian and I’m only just now wanting to learn more about Asian cooking in my late 20s.
Would love a book with a top recipe from every country. I originally grew up in Scotland. My mother was a fabulous natural cook. And Cooked everything at her beach hotel.
Hi from Ireland! Love your recipes! Some ideas for your cookbook:
Include notes on GF subs
Freezing & defrosting instructions
Roast dinners (leg of lamb, loin of pork etc & sides)
GF bread/pizza dough
Slow cooker recipes
Love the QR code to video link idea someone else suggested too!
Can’t wait for the book! Best of luck with it xx
Dozer biscuits haha
OMG CONGRATULATIONS!!! Can’t wait to purchase this for myself and family members.
Honestly, you make everything so easy to make I don’t mind what recipes are in it haha! I would love some more traditional Chinese dishes/dumpling recipes or even some American dishes like soul food, biscuits, money bread etc.
Congratulations! As an immigrant here in Australia (just over 3 years) who loves to cook, I would like to have a go-to recipes for Vanilla Slice, Jelly Slice, Kitchener Bun. 🙂
Would a little QR code work for a link to a video of how to make (if you have a video for that particular recipe)
Agreed. Yes I love the videos. They are great and so inspiring. I watch them and pause as I am working through the recipes. Your recipes and explanations are fantastic. QR code videos are a great idea.
Congrats!! I love your recipes, this is wonderful and well deserved! If you can include easier week night type of dinners and please please keep your American conversions of ingredients, it’s always appreciated 🙂
Congratulations!! Glad for you and Dozer too, in case he gets to eat experimental dishes. I would love some nutritious vegan entree recipes, or recipes for entrees that could easily be turned vegan. Huge fan of your Lentil Soup.
Thank you for all your hard work 🙂
I am so excited for this cookbook… is it ready yet? 🙂 can you add sushi bake? I would love a great recipe for that dish. XOXO
Love your recipes Nagi! Would love to see some authentic japanese dishes in your cook book!
Great idea Kathryn! N x
I love Japanese food and wish there were decent easy to follow recipes. So yes please.
Congrats Nagi! So well deserved, I tell everyone about your recipes!
I love one pot meals as I have a family, they are so easy for midweek cooking.
Also I’d love to see some South American recipes making an appearance please 🙂
Good luck!
Love your website, recipes and videos.. i for one will buy your book.. including some healthy alternatives would be grate too for those of us who love food but need to cut out the fats 🙂 best wishes
I can’t wait to be able to get your cookbook! I love the simplicity in your meals and my ability to follow your directions!
Congratulations. I’ve shared your website with friends and family. Your recipes and backgrounds have been enjoyed and looking forward to gifting your cookbook.
In regards to cookbook ideas, the nutritional value I find helpful. Also, tips and tricks as in substitutions, saving or freezing leftovers, items to prepare ahead of the full recipe.
Also, meals 60min or less for end to end.
This is awesome! I have been a follower for quite some time! I use your recipes all the time! Got nothing else but thanks to you and congratulations!
Hey Nagi! I love this idea! I’ve been a longtime follower and are excited for you. I’d love to see suggestions next to each main dish. I struggle to figure out what to accompany a dish with, so this will be helpful.
Also, I’d like to see you come up with meals which can be prepared in 30 minutes, but don’t lack flavourful! My favourites are Indian, Greek, Thai and Mexican. I’d like to see you stay as true as possible to original recipes from any of these counties.
