Chef Andy Hearnden, who is more popularly known as “Andy Cooks”, is renowned for collaborating with celebrities for his foodie videos. The sensational chef, who is always blessing the Instagram feeds, usually posts videos of him cooking for his wife, Katelyn Flood; whatever she wants, whichever cuisine she selects, Andy Hearnden makes it with utter perfection.

Recently, Andy Hearnden collaborated with Taika Waititi, the New Zealand filmmaker and actor. Following the pattern of Andy Hearnden’s videos, the video starts with a little twist where Taika Waititi asks the go-to question, “Hey babe, what do you feel like for lunch?” His wife, Rita Ora, replies with “Pispili.”

The couple goes into a fun banter where Taika Waititi doesn’t understand what his wife wants for lunch, and Rita Ora finally asks, “Where’s Andy?” And the celebrity chef shows saying, “We got this, bro.” The Instagram reel then proceeds with Andy Hearnden chopping leeks, and it gets even more fun when he hands Taika Waititi mint leaves.

Finally, the men proceed to cook Pispili, the Albanian cornbread with feta and leek. After sauteing the chopped leeks in heated oil, Andy Hearnden adds milk, all-purpose flour, and a little water. Taika Waititi stirs everything together, and both of them have a fun time while fitting leek leaves into the pan. After mixing everything together, Andy Hearnden prepares a baking tray and transfers the mixture to it.

Taika Waititi then whisks eggs, yoghurt, and cheese. Topping the mixture with the cheesy layer, the chef prepares it for baking. Once Taika Waititi takes the baked Pispili out of the oven, Rita Ora says, “You definitely didn’t do that.” The video ends with as much fun as possible while the wives enjoy the prepared Pispili. Captioned with “We were having way too much fun filming this video and I wasn’t 100% happy with how the dish turned out so I’m gonna remake the dish again and will post the updated recipe then,” you can guess how good the experience must have been off the screen.
