This delicious mix of smoked fish, rice and eggs began as a spicy Indian dish of beans or lentils, onions, rice and eggs. The colonial British substituted the fish for the beans, and it's still a very popular part of weekend breakfasts in Britain.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb smoked haddock or cod fillets
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp mild curry paste
  • 1 cup long grain rice
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 3 hard-cooked eggs, chopped
  • 3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper

Preparation

Place fish in shallow Dutch oven; pour in 2 cups (500 mL) cold water and bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer for 8 minutes or until fish flakes easily with fork. With slotted spoon, transfer fish to plate; cover with foil. Pour liquid into measuring cup; if necessary, add enough water to make 2 cups (500 mL). Set aside.

In same pan, melt butter over medium heat; cook onion, stirring often, for 5 minutes or until softened. Add curry paste; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add rice; stir to coat. Add bay leaf and reserved cooking liquid; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.

Meanwhile, flake fish. Add to rice along with two-thirds of the eggs, 2 tbsp (25 mL) of the parsley, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Serve garnished with remaining eggs and parsley.

Tip: You can use smoked trout, hot smoked salmon or mackerel instead of the haddock.
