Serge Pizzorno gets a kick from our spaghetti all’assassina

Angela takes on the ‘assassin’s method’ for our rock-star guest Serge Pizzorno is musician, songwriter, record producer and co-founder of Kasabian. The band, who release their latest album, Act III, on 4 September, have been together since the early ’ [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/recipe/bucatini-all-assassina-with-burrata-nduja-crumb]00s, with Serge taking on frontman responsibilities in 2020. He joins us after a huge gig at London’s Finsbury Park, in front of 50,000 people - so the Fast Food Quiz in front of the Dish crew should be a doddle.  Serge’s palate has been on quite a journey, from bread with no butter to taking on big hitting flavours, including today’s spicy pasta. Angela serves bucatini all’assassina, with burrata & ’nduja crumb [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/recipe/bucatini-all-assassina-with-burrata-nduja-crumb], using spaghetti instead of bucatini. It’s a pasta cooked like no other we’ve made on Dish before, using risotto-esque techniques and producing spaghetti with a dark, smoky char. It’s served with focaccia [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/angela-hartnett-with-waitrose-rosemary-sea-salt-focaccia/579900-1-2] from Angela’s range, and paired by the Waitrose wine experts with a bottle of Araldica Barbera D'Asti Superiore [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/araldica-barbera-dasti-superiore/476078-314307-314308].  It was so much fun getting to know Serge off-stage. From his Italian roots, to his loyalty to Leicester, and his life-long passion for bread, he is welcome back anytime.

She loves her meals to be sharp and sexy, but not wiggly, and feels passionately about crisp toasties and a chicken box after a night out at ‘le pub’.  Angela responds to her list of likes and dislikes with a Spanish-influenced meal for Jamie-Lee.

Tom Holland, Part 2. The skewers sequel... this time, it’s pork and pineapple!

Is he our new co-host now?! We return to the table with Tom Holland for another instalment of Dish, as the actor shares stories from his big summer on cinema screens. After focusing on The Odyssey in Part 1, we switch from Greek armour to spandex and chat about Spider-Man: Brand New Day, out now in UK cinemas.  After first being cast at the age of 18, Tom returns as Peter Parker for a fourth time alongside stars including Zendaya, Jon Bernthal and Sadie Sink. The production was shot in locations across the UK, including London and Glasgow, bringing city traffic to a standstill, as Angela can verify!  Luckily Tom has saved room for more food, and we continue our feast with a serving of spicy pork & pineapple skewers [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/recipe/spicy-pork-pineapple-skewers] and a village Greek salad [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/recipe/village-greek-salad], which is a Georgina Hayden recipe. The meal is served with a side of garlic and rosemary potatoes, and the wine pairing is a bottle of Isula Mea Syrah-Sciaccarellu Rosé IGP Ile de Beauté [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/isula-mea-syrah-sciaccarellu-rose-igp-ile-de-beaute/830411-824506-824507].  Tom is a family guy, and we get to hear all about his brother Sam, a chef who makes fantastic food and isn’t afraid to boss Tom about in the kitchen. There’s an end of the show challenge to impress Angela, and we finally get to hear what Tom’s favourite kitchen utensil is.  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@dishpodcast] and on Spotify.  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes [http://waitrose.com/dishrecipes] The recipe for the village Greek salad [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/recipe/village-greek-salad] was created for Waitrose by Georgina Hayden.

Tom Holland returns! Part 1 featuring smokey skewers and... pigs in blankets

The Odyssey star joins us for a skewer voyage. We’re delighted to host Tom Holland once again. His appearance on our Christmas 2024 special is written in Dish lore, so we jumped at the chance for a reunion ahead of a huge summer for the British actor. And that time came after England’s early morning World Cup victory over Mexico. Guess who of our trio stayed up for it?  Released a few weeks apart, Tom is in two global blockbusters certain to dominate cinema screens. First up is The Odyssey, as part of an all-star cast including Matt Damon, Anne Hathaway, Lupita Nyong’o, Zendaya and Robert Pattinson. The film, directed by Christopher Nolan, delivers the Homer epic at scale, shooting on IMAX cameras in locations across the world.  The Odyssey is out now, ahead of Tom’s second summer film, Spider-Man: Brand New Day: and that’s the focus of Part 2 of our chat, released next week on 29 July. We love Tom Holland, the summer edition, and our free-flowing conversation moves from filming with Lionel Messi, to meme-worthy red carpet poses, and an inside perspective on the challenge of Hot Ones. Alongside a menu of summery skewers and salads, Angela’s sights are set on pigs in blankets [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/recipe/sticky-pigs-in-blankets] redemption, after burning them for Tom when they last met. Can our super chef deliver a perfectly cooked, sticky starter? Stay tuned to find out...  The pigs are the warm-up ahead of padrón pepper and halloumi skewers [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/recipe/padron-pepper-halloumi-skewers-with-sweet-smokey-honey-drizzle] using the Ottolenghi sweet & smokey seasoning [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/ottolenghi-sweet-smoky-seasoning/738228-824868-824869].

Simon Pegg tucks into South Indian lamb chops

Dish is on high alert as we’re joined by the ‘food shark’.  Fresh off a flight from New York, we’re delighted to welcome Simon Pegg. An English actor and comedian, Pegg is loved for his iconic TV and movie roles, be that TV sitcom Spaced, the Mission: Impossible franchise or The Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy (Shaun Of The Dead, Hot Fuzz, The World’s End), in which he stars alongside good pal Nick Frost, who we know as a great onion chopper.  Simon joins Nick and Angela to talk about the return of Channel 4’s The Undeclared War, which sees him resume his role as Danny Patrick, the Director of Operations at GCHQ. The tense technological thriller, which centres around the threat of cyber attacks and digital sabotage, is available to watch from 21 July.  Angela serves Andhra chintakaya chaap [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/recipe/andhra-chintakaya-chaap], a recipe for a rich and flavoursome lamb chop curry, created by Maunika Gowardhan. This is paired by the Waitrose wine experts with a bottle of Beaujolais Cuvée Des Vignerons Franc [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/beaujolais-cuvee-des-vignerons-france/032766-16027-16028].  Nicknamed ‘the food shark’ by his family, due to his opportunistic approach to dinnertime, Simon is fantastic company. We hear about high-concept dining with Nick Frost, get the final word on eating scones, and Angela learns all about the Tom Cruise cake. We also discover Simon’s favourite moment from completing the ‘nerd trifecta’.  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@dishpodcast] and on Spotify.  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes [http://waitrose.com/dishrecipes] The recipe for Andhra chintakaya chaap [https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/recipe/andhra-chintakaya-chaap] was created for Waitrose by Maunika Gowardhan [https://www.instagram.com/cookinacurry].
