Graham Norton, lemon butter trout and a dirty vodka martini

Nick and Angela welcome the legendary chat show host who has been on the Dish dream guest list since the very beginning.  It only took eight seasons but we finally have Graham Norton at the Dish Table. The Irish comedian, broadcaster, writer and king of Friday night TV stops by to chat about his new podcast, Wanging On, which he co-hosts with Maria McErlane. The perfectly titled show sees Graham and Maria offer advice to help tackle a wide range of problems; from neighbourly disputes to unruly pets.  Although Graham lives in a vegan household, he is rather partial to a scotch egg which Angela serves as the episode’s starter alongside a dirty vodka martini made wet at Graham’s request. For the main course, Angela delivers lemon butter trout with roast potatoes & fennel. The trout is paired with a glass of Craggy Range Sauvignon Blanc.  Great food is matched by great chat, with Graham telling us about his full throttle food awakening on a French exchange trip and sharing his expert advice on a couple of Dish dilemmas from our audience. We get to learn about the magic of The Graham Norton Show sofa and why Brad Pitt is yet to take a seat on it. An episode we didn’t want to end featuring a guest we can’t wait to have back.  You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and, new for this season, on Spotify.  All recipes from this podcast can be found at waitrose.com/dishrecipes A transcript for this episode can be found at waitrose.com/dish If you want to get in touch with us about anything at all, contact [email protected]  Dish from Waitrose is made by Cold Glass Productions
