Kedgeree Recipe - Authentic British Seafood Delight

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 1 cup Basmati rice (Rinsed and drained)
  • 2 cups Water
  • 200 g Smoked haddock (Skinless and boneless)
  • 3 large Eggs (Hard-boiled and chopped)
  • 1 cup Frozen peas (Thawed)
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 1 tbsp Curry powder
  • 2 tbsp Fresh parsley (Chopped for garnish)
  • 1 lemon Juice
  • Salt To taste

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Cook the Rice

    In a medium pot, combine basmati rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes until rice is cooked and water is absorbed.

    Fluff the rice with a fork after cooking.
  2. Prepare the Haddock

    In another pot, add smoked haddock and cover with water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes. Remove haddock and flake into pieces.

    Use skinless, boneless haddock for best results.
  3. Boil the Eggs

    Place the eggs in boiling water and cook for 10 minutes. Remove, cool, peel, and chop.

    Submerge eggs in ice water after boiling to stop cooking.
  4. Combine Ingredients

    In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add curry powder and cook for 1 minute. Stir in rice, peas, haddock, and chopped eggs.

    Mix gently to avoid breaking up the haddock too much.
  5. Serve

    Serve hot, garnished with parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice if desired.

    Adjust seasoning with salt to taste.

💡 Tips & Tricks

Use fresh herbs for added flavor. Adjust the curry powder to your spice preference. Make sure the rice is properly rinsed for fluffiness.
