This week Nick and Angela welcome Nish Kumar to Dish HQ.\n\n\n\nNish is a critically acclaimed comic who has won rave reviews and prestigious award nominations for his stand-up. Away from the comedy circuit, he is a regular on TV shows like 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Live at the Apollo and Taskmaster, and can often be heard presenting The News Quiz on BBC Radio 4.\n\n\n\nThis year, you may have caught him on the hilarious Sky TV series Hold the Front Page, alongside Josh Widdicombe, or heard his brand-new political podcast, Pod Save the UK, from the makers of the hugely successful Pod Save America.\n\n\n\nAngela Harnett leads a masterclass in Italian cooking on this episode of Dish, making gnocchi from scratch. (For the rest of us, it\u2019s available readymade at Waitrose) The meal is paired with a delicious white wine, Triade Bianco.\n\n\n\nNish Kumar brings plenty of laughter to the table, discussing food (the best meal he\u2019s had in India), family (his parents' ploy to make him grow up) and friendship (what he really thinks of Ed Gamble and James Acaster).\n\n\n\nJust so you know, our podcast might contain the occasional mild swear word or adult theme.\n\n\n\nAll recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes\nA transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish\n\n\n\nWe can\u2019t all have a Michelin star chef in the kitchen, but you can ask Angela for help. Send your dilemmas to dish@waitrose.co.uk and she\u2019ll try to answer in a future episode.\n\n\n\nDish is a S:E Creative Studio production for Waitrose & Partners.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
