Nicola Coughlan savours our chipotle & lime roast chicken with smashed Jersey Royals

Deskripsi

All rise for the Queen of Pickles! Nicola Coughlan is an Irish actor known for her roles in fan favourite shows like Derry Girls, Bridgerton and Big Mood. She’s also a star with a palate that perfectly matches Nick and Angela’s: big flavours, well-seasoned food and ice cold Champagne. Nicola is with us to chat about the second series of the Channel 4 sitcom Big Mood, which is available to watch now. In Big Mood, Nicola plays Maggie, a playwright who suffers with bipolar disorder, in a show centred around her relationship with best friend Eddie, played by Lydia West. The show is written by Camilla Whitehill, who Nicola met while studying at drama school. Toasts to the show, and Nicola’s long-anticipated arrival at the Dish table, are made with a chilled glass of Bollinger Special Cuvée Brut NV as we navigate her likes and dislikes, including a strong affinity with pickles. Angela then serves chipotle & lime roast chicken with quick pickled onions, accompanied by smashed roast Jersey Royals (a recipe by Chetna Makan). The wine pairing is a glass of No.1 La Val Albariño and, at the ambassador’s request, there are Ferrero Rocher to finish. Nicola, whose career has gone from strength to strength, is so much fun to have over. We discuss the joys of Bridgerton, the value of a home gadget and her key takeaway from working at an opticians. We’re left wanting more... and for Angela and Nicola’s mums to hang out together! You can watch full episodes of Dish on YouTube and on Spotify.
