Hi, I'm Margie Nomura and welcome to the Desert Island Dishes podcast.

This is the podcast where every week I ask my guests to choose their seven Desert Island dishes.

These range from finding out about the dish that most reminds them of their childhood,

the best dish they've ever eaten, and of course, the last dish they

would choose to eat before being cast off to the Desert Island. I hope you're all well

and that you've had a lovely week. If you're listening and you haven't yet left a review,

please do as it really does give the show a little boost, and you will genuinely make my day. I'm still in the

process of mulling over what I want the Desert Island Dishes newsletter to contain. I'm currently

thinking it might be monthly, possibly fortnightly thing, but I do know it will be very good and you

won't want to miss it. So do go to Desert Islanddishes.com and you can sign up and come and join the gang.

So I only recently met Cloder after following her career from afar when I got to go to the most delicious dinner party at her house.

She certainly is the hostess with the mostest. There was dancing between each

course and the most delicious food. As it's Valentine's Day today, whether you're celebrating

that or Valentine's Day, Cloder has got a delicious menu suggestion for what you should make

if you've got someone in your life you would like to impress.

Without further ado, here is today's episode.

My guest today is Clodagh Macana. Cloda is a chef, restaurateur, cookbook author and a broadcaster.

Originally from Ireland, she's been cooking professionally for 20 years.

She is the author of six cookbooks, her latest one, Clodagh's Suppers, came out at the start of this year

and is completely gorgeous. In spring 2018, she became the weekly food columnist for the evening

standard, and she has regular slots on Channel 4's Sunday brunch in the UK,

the Today Show and the Rachel Ray Show in America, plus several more in Canada.
