CodePudding user response:

Switch the order of the init block and property initializers:

val randomRecipe = MutableLiveData<Resource<RandomRecipe>>()
var randomRecipeList: RandomRecipe? = null

init {
    getRandomRecipes()
}

Kotlin documentation is pretty clear on that topic:

During the initialization of an instance, the initializer blocks are executed in the same order as they appear in the class body, interleaved with the property initializers.

The randomRecipe was simply not initialized at the time when the getRandomRecipes method was executed.
