    Kedgeree
     

     
    2 Hard-cooked Eggs (Chopped Fine)
    1½ cups Flaked Finnan Haddie (Freshened, Boned, Skinned¹)
    3 cups Cooked Basmati Rice
    ¾ cup Heavy Cream
    1½ tsp Curry Powder (Or To Taste)
    ½ tsp Freshly Grated Nutmeg
    Freshly Ground Pepper
    3 tbsp Lemon Juice
    Lime Wedges
     

     
      • Preheat oven to 325°F.
      • Put the eggs, fish and rice in a large mixing bowl; toss together lightly to mix.
      • Put the cream in a small saucepan, add the curry powder and nutmeg, heat, stirring until the spices are blended.
      • Add the cream mixture, pepper, and lemon juice to the rice mixture, and gently toss.
      • Taste for salt and seasoning and adjust if needed (the dish won't need any salt if the smoked fish is salty).
      • Put the Kedgeree in a casserole and heat in oven only until piping hot.
      • Serve on a platter surrounding softly scrambled eggs, and garnished with lime wedges.
         
      • ¹ To freshen finnan haddie, soak it in cold milk for an hour, drain then poach it in fresh milk. The milk sweetens the fish and tames its saltiness.
     

    Makes approximately 4 servings.
