Kedgeree

Kedgeree – a sunshiney, lemony rice and fish dish.

Kedgeree is great for an Easter Brunch, or a light meal. Add some steamed veges or salad, and you’ve got a full meal. This is my easy Thermomix version – the rice, eggs, fish and veges can steam all at once, saving time, power and dishes!

You can make Kedgeree with either basmati rice or brown rice, and with either tinned fish or fresh/smoked fish. If using tinned tuna or salmon, or smoked salmon, you stir it in at the end. If using fresh fish, you can steam it in the Varoma at the same time as you’re cooking the rice and eggs in the rice basket. If you’re using tinned tuna or salmon, the ingredients are just things you usually have in the fridge and cupboard all the time… It’s nice to have some simple, standby recipes like this for when you need a spur-of-the-moment meal! But for something a bit more special, like Easter, try fresh smoked salmon – it’s so good.
 
Note: You can find fine sea salt, Aussie pepper and Organic Garlic for this recipe in my online store!

[Optional extra: if you can eat cream, drizzle about 3 tablespoons of cream in before folding ingredients together. If you want a little more moisture and can’t have dairy, you could use some coconut cream or cashew cream, or just a little nut milk.]

    Yum! So satisfied right now. I steamed some salmon fillets while the rice cooked and they worked perfectly.
