Spicy Kedgeree
Serves 4
Preparation time 15 minutes
Cooking time 25 minutes
A quick and easy meal, Kedgeree is
derived from the traditional Hindhu dish of
Khichri, a simple mixture of spiced rice and
lentils. Our kedgeree is flavoured with
haddock, spices and hard-boiled eggs. If
wished, you can serve it with mango
chutney.
1 onion, chopped
852ml / 1
1/
2
pints chicken stock
170g / 6oz long grain rice
Pinch of turmeric
Pinch of ground ginger
1-2 teaspoons curry powder
1/
2
teaspoon ground nutmeg
340g / 12oz cooked haddock fillet
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Few sprigs of parsley, chopped
2 hard-boiled eggs
1 Put the onion in a heavy-based pan with
the stock. Bring to the boil, covered, and
boil for 5-10 minutes.
2 Place the onion, stock, rice and spices
into the Rice & Pasta Cooker and leave to
cook.
3 When the cooker switches to warm, flake
in the haddock.
4 Season to taste with salt and pepper and
sprinkle with chopped parsley. Heat
gently for a few more minutes until the
kedgeree is really hot, taking care that
the rice does not stick to the base of the
pan. Serve immediately with quartered
hard-boiled eggs.
