Smoked Mackerel Kedgeree
I love Kedgeree but I have never made it with curry powder or smoked haddock instead I like to make it with smoked mackerel, turmeric, cumin and chili powder, it's very delicious.
Basmati Rice
Smoked Mackerel
Frozen petite pois
Onion
Free-range eggs
Turmeric
Chili Powder
Cumin
Salt
It's so simple to make, just cook your rice, fry the chopped onion in the spices and hard boil your eggs and peas. Mix it all together and flake the mackerel in near the end and that's all there is to it.
Lovely Peppered smoked mackerel
Free range eggs from my Mum's chickens, look at the lovely pale blue one!
There is a very noticeable contrast in the photo's I have taken as the brighter ones are in my kitchen and the softer looking ones were in my living room under my lamp whilst I was eating the kedgeree but I can assure you it's the same kedgeree!

Peas! I'm going have to try them in the next batch I whip up.
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely. What quantities of spices did you use? I think I add too much turmeric when I use it.
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely and tasty.
ReplyDeleteI always add peas Stephan, it makes it extra lovely!
ReplyDeleteHi Gary, I am afraid I am one of those people who do not measure anything and so I can't give you an exact amount of tumeric but I believe it may be around 2 teaspoons, I just add a little at a time unti, I think it's right.
Thanks Jennifer.x
Looks great. Smoked mackerel's undervalued.
ReplyDeleteIs that blue egg a Cotswold Legbar? Think I got some from Waitrose once a few years back. Dunno if they tasted different, but they looked very smart :)
Hi San, your so right in saying smoked mackerel is undervalued, it's pone of my most favourite fish to eat, Im happy to eat it on its own I love it so much! The blue egg is from one of my Mum's chickens, there funny little white and tan coloured things with feathers growing over there feet, I'll have to ask her what there called!
ReplyDeleteI love mackerel - it's such an underrated fish. So much flavour!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a great quick recipe which I have to try out one of these days. we eat mackrels quite often these days, since it is popular around here, so a new style of eating mackrels is very much welcome! thx for the recipe
ReplyDeleteI have never had this dish. What a delicious meal. And your photographs are splendid.
