Well I really don’t think enough people actually know what this dish is! Best way to describe it for me it’s similar to a biriani with smoked fish? Some will start their day with this although I tried for the first time for dinner
Ingredients
250g skinless undyed smoked haddock fillet
2 large eggs
1 bay leaf
125g basmati rice
1tsp olive oil
1 tbsp madras paste (20g)
1 medium onion, finely sliced
1 chilli pepper, finely sliced
80g frozen peas
Fresh coriander, stalks chopped leaves reserved to garnish
Lemon
Method
1. Bring a large and small saucepan of water to the boil. Add the fish fillet, eggs and bay leaf to the large pan and the rice to the small pan. Cook the rice as per packet instructions and simmer the fish and the egg for 6 minutes.
2. Meanwhile heat your oil in a large dish or wok. Add the onion, chilli and coriander stalks, cooking at a medium heat for about 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the curry paste and peas and season.
3. After the 6 minutes remove the egg and haddock with a slotted spoon. The haddock should easily flake into chunky bits and you can leave the eggs to cool.
4. Drain the rice and add to the onion mix stirring well. Add the fish and a good squeeze of lemon juice and heat through while you peel and quarter the eggs.
Season before serving the egg on top of the rice mix and a generous sprinkling of coriander
