Kedgeree

Kedgeree

Kedgeree is a lovely unctuous Anglo-Indian rice dish, believed to have been devised in the 1700’s by Scottish regiments hankering for the tastes of India. By the 19th century, Kedgeree had become a sophisticated and fashionable breakfast/brunch dish in Victorian England. You can use shop bought haddock fillets or do it yourself.

METHOD

Step 1

Hard-boil the eggs for 8-10 minutes, then hold under cold running water.

Step 2

Place the fish and bay leaves in a shallow pan with enough water to cover. Bring to a gentle simmer for about 4 minutes, until just cooked through. Lift from pan and leave to cool. Remove the skin from fish, flake into chunks and set aside.

Step 3

Cook the rice in salted water for about 10 minutes and drain. Refresh in cold water, drain again and leave to the side until needed. 

Step 4

Melt the butter or ghee in a pan over a low heat. Add the ginger, onion, and garlic. Soften for about 5 minutes. Add the curry powder, cardamom pods and mustard seeds. Cook for a further few minutes, then add chopped tomatoes and lemon juice.

Step 5

Add the rice, then the fish to the pan stirring gently on a low heat. Quarter the eggs and add to pan along with the coriander & chopped chilli, stirring very gently. Season with pepper and a little salt, if required. Place in a warm serving dish.

Step 6

Mix the rest of the coriander into the yoghurt and serve with the kedgeree.
