This popular breakfast meal hails from the Victorian era, probably the kind of dish that may have been offered to the “upstairs” people at Downton Abbey, on some shiny silverware served by a butler. These days it’s a classic British comfort food brunch option, commonly served at restaurants on the other side of the pond. A glorious, curried rice dish with Anglo-Indian roots.The traditional kedgeree uses smoked haddock or mackerel, but in my version, I used salmon.This salmon kedgeree recipe features: fluffy golden curry infused rice, gorgeously poached coral pink salmon, bouncy hard-boiled eggs, and is accented with zesty punches of lemon and plenty of fresh organic Italian parsley. A simple and healthy recipe that is incredibly fragrant.It can be served hot or cold. It’s traditionally considered a breakfast food but also goes well for lunch, or dinner. Have you tried kedgeree before?
