Marcus Mumford joins us for Awadhi chicken pulao and all the sides
6/10/202642 min
A one-pot wonder shared with a chart-topping star. Marcus Mumford is an American-British singer, songwriter, musician and producer. He is best known as the lead singer of the award-winning English folk-rock band Mumford & Sons. Marcus took the train from his home in Devon to visit us for a chat about the band’s latest album, Prizefighter, and their headline show at BST Hyde Park on 4 July. But before that, we take a closer look at some of Marcus’s favourite meals, including beef Wellington which, we find out, is a dish Angela is only going to master in exceptional circumstances. We hear about how Marcus and his wife, actor Carey Mulligan, have a small but mighty crop of fruit and veg at their Devon home, and how they like to entertain... at lunchtimes. We also get the recipe for Marcus’s cauliflower salad that routinely impressed Taylor Swift, the origin story of his Oscar tattoos, and how he and the band have moved away from warm beer, chocolate and crisps in their dressing room. Angela cooks Ravinder Bhogal’s Awadhi chicken pulao, served with naans, poppadoms and mango chutney. The suggested wine pairing is a bottle of Jackson Estate Sauvignon Blanc, while Marcus enjoys a 0.0% Gin & tonic. You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify.

[gentle music] Picture soft, fluffy Danish dough, rolled and twisted by hand, layered with softly spiced cinnamon butter, silky vanilla custard baked right through the center, finished with a delicate drizzle of icing that melts the moment it's warm. The cinnamon social from Ole & Steen. Golden, indulgent, and utterly irresistible. Now waiting for you in selected Waitrose stores alongside a range of other Ole & Steen pastries, all baked the Danish way with a traditional craftsmanship.

Sun shines out, and so is something seriously special this summer. Meet the limited edition sandwiches bringing bold Indian-inspired flavor to your lunch. First, the Indian jeera wrap. Two halves, double the joy. Think rich butter chicken with a vibrant rainbow pickle slaw paired with a smashed bhaji wrap, topped with pink pickled onions and a cool mint mayonnaise. And the chicken tikka roll. Tender, saucy, spiced chicken tikka wrapped in a jeera wrap. Fresh, flavor-packed, and only here for summer. Available at Waitrose for a limited time. Selected stores subject to availability.
