Fieri called his wife’s creation a “far greater” version of noodles and beef.

“She sautés top sirloin with onions, mushrooms and garlic,” “And she makes this fantastic gravy and serves it over egg noodles. It’s a very simple dish but it’s one of my favorites.”

So there you have it, the answer is yes, Lori Fieri can definitely cook.

That said, Fieri often takes the reins to prepare dinner for Lori.

“My linguini and clams is probably one of her [Lori’s] all-time favorites,” “Especially when the clams are really small. And when we sit down together to have a really nice dinner.”
