Smoked haddock kedgeree
It's St Andrew's Day and Lorraine's birthday so to celebrate Nadia Sawalha is serving up the ultimate Scottish breakfast treat, Arbroath Smokie Kedgeree.
(Serves 6)
Ingredients:
2 tbsp olive oil1 onion, finely chopped1 tsp dried coriander1tsp turmeric4tsp medium curry powder300g basmati ricePepper, to season300g cooked smoked haddock, or Arbroath smokies, flaked into large chunks10 hard-boiled quails eggs (or four chicken eggs)Fresh coriander, chopped1 tsp nigella seeds, dry fried
Method:
Heat the oil in a non-stick pan with a lid and fry the onion until soft. Add the coriander, turmeric and curry powder and cook until their aroma is released.
Stir in the rice and season with pepper only (the fish is already salty). Cover with boiling water until it comes 5cm above the rice.
Bring to the boil and stir once - turn the heat as low as possible and cover with a tight-fitting lid. Leave to simmer for 15 minutes.
Spoon the rice into a large serving dish and gently stir in the haddock or smokies and top with the eggs and coriander. Sprinkle with nigella seeds. Serve with mango chutney.
Note: Hot smoked salmon also works well in this recipe.
