This week on Dish, Nick and Angela are joined by the hilarious Lou Sanders!
Lou is a comedian, writer and podcaster who’s appeared on our screens in QI, Dancing on Ice, Would I Lie to You, Live at the Apollo, and Taskmaster, which she won in 2019. She joins us fresh from the end of her latest stand-up tour, No Kissing in the Bingo Hall, and following her impressive appearance on Last One Laughing.
If she wasn’t busy enough, Lou also launched a new podcast earlier this year, A Psychic Told Us To Do It, with her best pal Georgie Bayford. Front and centre of the show is Lou’s love for spirituality, covering everything from pet psychics, witchcraft, holistic foot therapy to manifesting. You can also read more about Lou’s life and career in her 2023 memoir, What’s That Lady Doing?
With Lou’s love for creamy vegan pasta, Angela fulfilled the brief by serving a delicious mushroom & pistachio tagliatelle, with a side of sauteed garlic and spinach. Our Waitrose wine experts suggest pairing this with a glass of Val di Suga Brunello di Montalcino but, for Lou, it’s served with a glass of Thomson & Scott Noughty Rouge Dealcoholized Wine.
As expected, conversations in this episode roam freely, contemplating all those big questions: Is Lou really in her gardening era?; Is her cat Bobert her husband from a past life?; And should raw onion ever be acceptable? Our tagliatelle dish is a vegan hit, earning Lou’s seal of approval right from the first sniff, but our Quickfire quiz? Lou’s not holding back!

We can’t 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’ll try to answer in a future episode.

Tahini? In pasta?
Angela❤, you are such a gift thank you!

That looks soo really f ing great. Love the "everything gets better with olive oil." Sentiment and command. Great job.
You can make delicious food fast!! Angela is supreme.
Where's the sauce?
Angela’s hair is everything. She looked so pretty. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Angela is 👌🏻 everything always looks incredible x
I've watched this episode. Lou Sanders is hilarious.
Fresh parsley or arugula might have been nice and lemon zest.
Wow, that looks delicious
Give her a better blender/food processor. She looks enraged every time she has to use that one.
Angela yes absolutely but Lou, yuck
I love it when real cooks end up making shows like this. You can tell she’s been a chef in real kitchens.
Please never stop making these BTS recipes that go along with the podcast episode
Okay, I’m new to Dish (been watching new and older episodes for 2 months now) and am I making this up or is Angela wearing makeup more consecutively now? Listen, I’m here for however an individual wants to represent themselves, but if the makeup is for “viewers” I just want to put my two cents out there and say I LOVE people showing up exactly as they are/how they want to. That’s all ❤ I sincerely love this show regardless of how the hosts and guests show up. This show makes me feel less alone as I laugh along and gain inspiration from the conversations and recipes. So much love to everyone involved on this show 🫶🏼
She is a skilled chef, mushrooms and pistachios? Refined pallet as well.
This with Parmesan on top would be epic. I’m making this
Whats the point of the drizzled olive oil? I don’t like the feel of it or the taste. Does it really do that much, or just add fat?
Guys, I need to go glutenfree again, would pasta water from corn pasta do the same trick of thickening the sauce?
❤❤❤❤❤
❤She’s Truly a Legend 🎉
Clearly not BBC Food
Loving this Dish vegan era ❤
I just made this dish for lunch, and I have to say that it brightened my day! Lovely flavors, can’t go wrong with this recipe… also super quick to make. It’s very forgiving, you don’t need to make everything perfectly to taste great ❤ thank you 🙏🏾
Ang is a legit legend.
