Kate Middleton’s favourite meal to cook is a British staple but William has one special request
Kate Middleton is known to be a keen cook, and some of her favourite meals to whip up for her family are absolute British favourites, but when she makes one in particular for her husband William he has one special request
Since joining the Royal Family, Princess Kate has been open about how much she likes to cook for her family, providing a sense of normality that was once missing from the formal sense of the monarchy. From taking part in cooking classes and demonstrations during her official royal engagements to revealing insider tidbits about what she loves to whip up in the kitchen during interviews, the public knows a lot about her cooking expertise.
Many of the dishes Kate has admitted are some of her go-tos when it comes to dinner time in her home, are absolute British classics, including roast chicken, but there is one popular dish that Kate has said she makes regularly that is one of the UK’s favourite meals – but because of her husband Prince William’s requirements, there is always one special request that comes with it.
The meal in question in none other than a curry, one of the most popular meals up and down the UK, but despite Kate’s love for a bit of spice, her husband William has admitted he simply can’t handle the heat – so Kate has to go the extra mile to accommodate his more mild sensibilities.
Speaking during an appearance on BBC Radio 1 when the couple took part in the Going Home with Vick and Jordan show, William made the surprising admission that he simply can’t cope with too much spice after the radio hosts had enquired about the couple’s dinner plans that evening. After joking around with one another about who would be handling the dinner responsibilities, William explained that Kate often makes curry for the family, to which she added, “Yeah, it probably will be a curry or teriyaki salmon, something like that”.
Their hosts asked them just how spicy they liked their curry, and William admitted, ” I can’t do too much spice, I start sweating. It’s not attractive”. Kate then explained that she does prefer more heat in her curries, so she has a special method to ensure that the dish is served to both of their tastes: “Whereas I like the spice so I have to sort of cook the curry and then add the spice, extra spice at the end,” she explained. Curry and roast chicken aren’t the only staple dishes that Kate has admitted she regularly cooks, she also has previously revealed that her children are big fans of pizza and pasta and sometimes help her make homemade pizza dough and cheesy pasta sauces with salads.
