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….
Dear Nagi,
You are absolutely fantastic, I am SO appreciative of your wonderful recipes that have brought back my love for food and eating in company after a long illness with many food issues. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’d like to buy your future cookbook and anything you put out there. Please put me on your Newsletter so that I’ll be amongst the first to know about it.
Recipes I’d love to see:
– Gluten AND dairy-free meals
– Hazelnut cake with chocolate-butter-cream layers (I have a nice family recipe from Bosnia I could share with you for you to improve on)
– How to prepare a work week with healthy and tasty, quick cooking (what to stock the fridge and pantry with and when to prepare what)
No matter what you put inside your book I will want to read it. Kindest wishes from Switzerland, Lea
Looking SO FORWARD TO YOUR BOOK!! What to put in it?
ALL THESE FB RECIPES. My hand is so tired from writing. U r amazing!!! We love these recipes, your dog, and your beautiful smile!
Please email me when your book comes out; I’ve tried several of your recipes and all have been outstanding. Thanks.
Don’t worry Dave! You will hear about it!! N
I/we/everyone misses you! (And Dozer, too!)
I am wishing you all the best for your cookbook! Have a very Merry Christmas!
Hi Nagi, I’m sure the cover for your new book will be exciting and can’t wait to see it. Really looking forward to getting your new book too. I’ve not long found your website, registered and loving the recipes in your free books. Have a great Christmas!
Nagi: Your web is the first place I come for a recipe.
My first thanksgiving meal was a success because of your recipes. Thanks!
I will be eager to buy your book. I still have to work in your Asian recipes. They do not come as good as they look when you make them 🙁
But for sure will be working on them. Anything you put in your book will be appreciated.
I’m so excited about your book! I love your low prep and slow cooker recipes the most and would love to see lots in your book 🙂
I absolutely can not wait for this book to come out. I’ve been using your recipes for years and EVERY single one is perfect!!! I’m constantly telling people about you. My mum is sick of hearing your name. 😂
I would love to buy your cookbook every recipe I’ve tried has never failed to please. A saviour during lockdown. Would it be possible to get a digital version? I’m just so used to following your recipes on my phone or I pad now. And then my cookbook pages wont get dirty. Either way put me on the list for a cookbook please.
Nagi, your site is the first place I go for any recipe. Everything is so clearly explained etc. I don’t think I have ever tried anything that has failed. I can’t wait for the cookbook. I hope you included the Molten Chocolate Cakes in there as they are super easy, super delicious and very elegant as well with the dusting of icing sugar and some raspberries! Thank you!
Hi Nagi – your website is my go to for most of my cooking! Would you be able to include some recipes that are easy to meal prep for weekday lunches (meals that refrigerate well, reheat in microwave well, healthy and not boring)! Thanks!
Congratulations I will be one who buys the new book. I would also purchase a book with your current recipes. I have tried so many recipes and am yet to find a doozy.
Can’t wait to see your cookbook in my hand! I have so many cookbooks but yours will definitely make its way into our home. You have many fans out here who can’t wait to see it and really appreciate the effort you are putting in!
I am so looking forward to your cookbook. I hope I will be able to get it here in Ireland or Amazon. You are working so hard. I know your book will be great as I have cooked so many of your recipes and still do. Can you believe I have a “Nagi” folder. Keep going I know it will be great because you are a perfectionist. Trudy
I’m a huge fan of yours Nagi. Your meals are always so delicious. A request to include lots of vegetarian (and vegan) dishes in your cookbook. My family and I are vegetarian, and I’m always searching for vegetarian recipes from your collection for something delicious and different to eat. Also, as Cathy commented on 20/11, your notes are gold! Please include them in the cookbook. Keep cooking up those amazing recipes Nagi!
I totally love your hints and tips. It doesn’t matter what the recipe, you always have some insight to share that “makes” the dish. I look forward to purchasing your book.
I love your recipes, Nagi. They are delicious, but the point of difference for me is in your notes. This is where you really teach me how to cook – ‘don’t leave this ingredient out, it is the basis of the flavour’ or ‘you can substitute xx for this’ or ‘use this to make italian herbs if you don’t have any’. I find all of your notes so helpful – please keep them in your cookbook. I look forward to seeing the end product! Great work lovely lady.
Oh yes I totally agree with you Cathy. . . .
Nagi you have helped me in so many ways and your notes DO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. They in-still clarity & confidence for me.
I’m also a visual cook, so pictures/photos are very important as well.
I will definitely be investing in your cookbook too. 😉
Thanks Cathy! So kind of you to write in!! N x
My 83 yr old husband is a huge fan of yours and constantly looks up your recipes to follow. Your meat pies, slow cooked rolled lamb roast and beef bourguignon have been a huge hit! Thank you and congratulations on the upcoming recipe book which we will be purchasing😁
Nagi I love your dog Doza
I’m your biggest fan!!! All your recipes are amazing and I really appreciate all you have share with us. So anything will be great for this, your first, cookbook. Greetings from Guatemala!!
