Jamali Maddix, spiced whole chicken with herby rice, ice cream and a Grüner Veltliner

An episode packed with strong food opinions and another one-pot-wonder chicken dish. Jamali Maddix is a British comedian, writer and presenter known for his honest and intelligent humour. Alongside regular appearances on shows including Never Mind the Buzzcocks, QI and 8 Out of 10 Cats, he’s also fronted a number of documentaries, including last year’s Follow The Leader for U&Dave. He’s with us to talk about the new Comedy Central show, Jimmy Carr’s Am I The A**hole, where Jamali, Jimmy and GK Barry are in charge of serving judgements on the divisive behaviour of members of the public. Angela serves spiced whole chicken with herby rice, which is an instant hit with Jamali, tasting so good that it proves a distraction from Nick’s questions. The drinks pairing of Felsner Moosburgerin Grüner Veltliner 2024 Kremstal is a test for Jamali’s palate, but he gives it a go, despite not being a huge wine lover. Room is made for dessert, with a selection of Ottolenghi’s new ice creams, including, Madagascan Vanilla & Miso Caramel. Food chat at Dish has never been so passionate, with nothing safe from Jamali’s razor sharp takes. Air fryers, wine and the concept of sharing desserts are among the victims in this week’s episode. We also get to learn all about alligator cheesecake and finally find out the true value of the Dish table. Any takers?
