Introduction

The original recipe is from Delia Smith's Cookery Course book and is a family favourite. However, it uses 3oz (75g) of butter. This is a my low-fat version and made with brown rice rather than white.

Ingredients

    500g smoked haddock fillets, skinned
    1 tbsp oil
    1 onion, chopped
    Brown rice measured up to the 8 fl.oz. level in a measuring jug (or 1 US cup)
    1 pint water
    1tsp Madras curry powder
    3 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
    3 heaped tbsps fresh parsley, chopped
    1 tbsp lemon juice (approx. 1/2 lemon)



Tips

1 tsp of hot curry powder gives this the traditional kedgeree flavour but it isn't enough to make this a 'hot' dish.

Delia's original recipe used 1.5lbs of unskinned haddock (700g). I used 500g of skinned fillet because that's what I had. If using unskinned then remove skin after cooking when you flake the fish.


Directions

First place the haddock in a saucepan & cover with 1 pint (570ml) cold water. Bring to a simmer and cook gently. Depending on the thickness of the fillets this can take 5 mins. Drain the water into a measuring jug. Transfer the haddock to a dish, cover with foil and keep warm.

Put the oil in saucepan and soften the onion for 5 mins. Stir in the curry powder and cook for half a minute, then stir in the measured rice and add 16 fl.oz (450ml) of the haddock cooking water. Stir once then, when it comes up to simmering point, cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook, very gently, for 20 mins or until the rice is tender.

Flake the fish and add it and the eggs, parsley and lemon juice to the rice.

Cover the pan with a tea towel and leave for 5 mins to warm through the added ingredients before serving.
