Nick and Angela welcome culinary greatness to DISH HQ.

It’s fair to say that this chef, restaurateur and author has transformed the way the world prepares and shares food. Yotam Ottolenghi creates a feast for the eyes (that INSTA grid) and a feast for our tables too. His cuisine is a masterclass in colour and combinations and he champions the humble vegetable like no other. Today he is joined by the esteemed recipe creator and head of his Test Kitchen, Noor Murad.

The pair discuss their new book Ottolenghi Test Kitchen: Extra Good Things, which is full of ‘flexible, flavour-packed dishes that all lend a little something 'extra' to your next meal’. They share their memories of food growing up and give British desserts a very interesting review.

Keen to impress her peers, Angela carefully crafted a rocket and cannellini bean bruschetta followed by a creamy pasta with lemon and chard and washed down with a Blueprint white burgundy.

Just so you know, our podcast might contain the occasional mild swear word or adult theme.

We can’t all have a Michelin star chef in the kitchen, but you can ask Angela for help. Send your dilemmas to [email protected] and she’ll try to answer in a future episode.
