Spicy Kedgeree
A quick and easy meal, Kedgeree is
derived from the traditional Hindhu dish of
Khichri, a simple mixture of spiced rice
and lentils. Our kedgeree is flavoured with
haddock, spices and hard-boiled eggs. If
wished, you can serve it with mango
chutney.

1 Put the onion in a heavy-based pan
with the stock. Bring to the boil,
covered, and boil for 5-10 minutes.
2 Place the onion, stock, rice and
spices into the Rice Cooker and leave
to cook.
3 When the cooker switches to ‘keep
warm’, flake in the haddock.
4 Season to taste with salt and pepper

Heat gently for a few more minutes
until the kedgeree is really hot, taking
care that the rice does not stick to the
base of the bowl. Serve immediately
