CHRIS Evans was left in hysterics today when Romesh Ranganathan revealed he prefers mum’s cooking to his wife Leesa’s.
The comedian appeared on today’s Virgin Radio Breakfast Show and admitted he had been secretly getting his mum Shanthi to cook for him, which came out in an episode of his courtroom show Judge Romesh.
He revealed: “Basically my wife and my mum turned up. What had happened was my mum had been sending Sri Lankan food care packages to me and my wife was getting really annoyed about it because she would cook dinner and then my mum would turn up or I would have a carrier bag of stuff.
“It was bit of conflict so they bought it to the court room. It went badly.”
Finding it very funny Chris asked him: “What were you thinking would have happened?”
Romesh continued: “Originally my wife bought my mum to court for cooking for me all the time but during the court case they found out – or it became apparent that I had been texting my mum requesting these care packages.
“It took a turn for the worse at that stage.”
A Chris continued laughing, he admitted: “It’s still an ongoing issue.”
When Chris said it was because he preferred his mum’s food, he said he only asked “because they specialise in different areas”, adding: “My wife doesn’t make Sri Lankan cuisine.”
Leesa and Shanthi then went head to head in a cooking contest but Romesh refused to say which he preferred.
He said: “It was fajitas vs an aubergine curry in a head to head and they were both delightful .”
