Rob Beckett meets his match with our creamy pea pasta with crispy garlic sausage
Fortunately for him, resisting temptation isn't on the menu.Comedian, presenter and podcaster Rob Beckett joins Nick and Angela to chat about the return of Channel 4's Tempting Fortune. As host, Rob guides twelve strangers through an 18-day trek across the Malaysian jungle, where every temptation comes with a price tag attached to the group's £300,000 prize fund. Luckily for Rob, there are no such strings attached with the Dish menu.It's been a long time coming, but cottage cheese finally makes its Dish debut. Taking centre stage in Angela's creamy pea pasta with crispy garlic sausage, the protein-packed favourite swaps in for the recipe's mascarpone. The dish is served alongside another of Rob's staples, Robinsons Apple & Blackcurrant Squash, and is paired with a bottle of Louis Jadot Beaujolais-Quincié, selected by the Waitrose wine experts for its bright acidity and ability to balance the creamy sauce.While any hopes of Celebrity Traitors gossip are swiftly shut down, Rob's ongoing rotisserie chicken rivalry proves to be much easier territory, with Angela on hand to share a few trade secrets, courtesy of friend and chef James Ferguson. The conversation soon turns to Rob's strong views on regional delicacies, why couscous remains low on his list of favourite foods, and his reluctance to cook for other people. That said, hand him a spatula and he might just be persuaded otherwise…The new series of Tempting Fortune is out now and available to watch on Channel 4.
