The 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown star has also told the Belfast Telegraph of another popular dinner in her house. She revealed: "Now I am a bit more experimental because with the veg boxes you get vegetables you've never even heard of. So I can make a really good stew with whatever comes in.
"I used to follow recipes to the T and I wouldn't really go out of the box, but now it's just like, 'Oh I'll chuck this in and see what comes out' - and normally it's really nice."
