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….
I would buy your cookbook even it it was filled with recipes already on your site. Being gluten free (not by choice) and not liking baked sweet stuff in general, I would love to see the exciting flavours and textures of your savoury recipes dominate. Would you be including any of your mum’s recipes? I am making her Midorizu today!
Your recipe for Chicken Tostadas would be greatly appreciate please.
Fantastic idea and love you regular emails!!
I’ve used some of your recipes as I like the variety. I’d like to see some recipes using lamb along with those great Middle Eastern spices. Cheers from New York.
Fantastic idea! Dozer definitely needs to be on the cover somewhere.
Love your recipes and the way they are so well set out on the web site. Nutrition and healthy options would also be useful!
Totally super awesome on yours and dear Dozer’s cookbook. Love this photo of him. 🙂 So excited for you, and can hardly wait for the release to buy. You are perfect, and love all your gorgeous creations. Would love to see Dozer on every page 🙂 and a dish or two that you haven’t created yet. Your posts make my days :-). Congratulations Nagi and Dozer. Loving hugs, pats and sweet kisses Dozer.
I was really hoping that this would happen. Just make sure that you include EVERY recipe from your site.
Alot of stovetop main entree recipes without involving the use of an oven would be great. I also love your salad dressing recipes. In addition, healthful Mediterranean diet recipes too.
Can you add in a Dozer’s delights for animal friendly snacks too!!
I would love to buy your book! Can you come up with some gluten free recipes?
Keep everything EXACTLY the same as you do on the website. It’s perfect, just as it is!
What exciting news about your cookbook, Any recipe where mushrooms are the hero ingredient would be amazing. If there’s a way to mention meat substitutes in other recipes, that would also be a great addition. Thank you
One for me please Nagi. Very excited about the book!
Congratulations!! I cook dinner every night from your recipes on the website and the family love them too. My kids need afternoon snack ideas. They always open the fridge and pantry and say there is nothing to eat. We’re looking for simple nutritious snacks that are quick for the kids to make. Thanks 😊
So excited to hear this. I’d love a photo of each recipe w your step by step style. We cook from your collection of recipes nearly every day! I’d also like to see your recipe book w enough weight so that when you flick to a page the recipe lies flat in referring to whilst cooking. Hope that makes sense. Good luck during this venture and I can’t wait !
Hi Nagi,
I’m pescertairean so I would like all healthy fish and seafood dishes like salads Chinese, curry, my Hubby loves
Prawn Foo young.😁 and I don’t have a clue how to make it. I love chow mein and chop suey, and some chicken recipes I can cook for friends at weekends. I’ve already got fur baby treat’s sorted. Maureen xxx
Great news , I’ll have three please . One for me plus two for daughters. My all time fave recipe of yours is the Broccoli Salad with Sour cream dressing. Love your emails and updates on your Dozer and your feeding those in need.You rock.
I would love to see some of the Asian recipes from your website. I have made everything from the chocolate muffins to the Mongolian lamb. I have not made one I didn’t like.
Huge congrats on signing a cookbook deal. Doesn’t matter what you put in cause I’ll be buying it anyways. Your recipes are always delicious and easy to prepare. Only request would be for a picture so I know what my effort should look like and the nutrition info … oh and do ahead hints 😉
It would be great to include some lunch box snacks/ fast and easy sweet treats!! Like the delicious brownies, caramel slice etc!! Congratulations and I can’t wait!!
Hi Nagi
Congratulations on your book deal. I will be buying at least 4 copies for gifts as your recipes are deliciously down to earth.
I would love to see more recipes that can be cooked & leftovers frozen for another meal or two. Great for working folks as well as for people like me who cook for only two people so love to have extra to freeze for those later nights after babysitting grandchildren.
Also some tasty, very easy BBQ recipes for him to follow. Sick of the burnt chop he calls a bbq meal.
Thanks & love your work.
