Stephen and Anita Mangan, Palestinian slow-roast lamb and an organic red

Dish

Nick and Angela welcome their first siblings to DISH HQ.

Stephen Mangan is an actor, writer and presenter known for his roles in Green Wing with Olivia Colman, I’m Alan Partridge and The Split opposite Nicola Walker. He currently presents Portrait Artist of the Year with Joan Bakewell.

Anita Mangan is an illustrator who has designed over 70 cookbooks including Kelis' My Life on a Plate, Gizzi Erskine’s Seasons Greetings and Fearne Cotton’s Cook Happy Cook Healthy.

The brother and sister have just released their third kids’ book, The Unlikely Rise of Harry Sponge.

Angela cooks the most delicious Palestinian slow-roast lamb for Stephen and Anita, which leaves the crew salivating on the sidelines. Nick mixes a Stanley Tucci-inspired negroni to start, and then pours an organic red, Los Tontos Sabios. Stephen and Anita are a charming pair who share stories of their relationship over the years, Anita presents Nick and Angela with a gift she’s made herself and Stephen reveals the (hilarious) impact that Alan Partridge has on his daily life.
