The Presidents’ Own White House Cookbook, p. 50
1 cup boiled white fish (flaked)
1 cup boiled rice
2 hard-cooked eggs
Seasoning:
A teaspoon of onion juice
A teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce
A tablespoon of curry powder
It's helpful if you (unlike me) remember to make the eggs before it's go-time. |
Mix together fish, rice, eggs, and seasoning.
I was perplexed by the idea of "onion juice" but a couple of pinches of onion powder seemed to do the trick. |
Put in
oven to brown. Serve hot. The hard-cooked eggs are, of course, chopped and
added. If one likes the mixture a little moist, milk may be added. It is good
served with a hot tomato or chili sauce, or pepper pot.
I don't know if Western people knew about Sriracha when this cookbook was published in 1968, but it was a great chili sauce to add. |
My Rating: 4/5 "Heck yeah comfort food! I enjoyed the pizzazz the seasonings gave this iteration of kedgeree - not quite full-on Indian flavor, but it's in the neighborhood enough to nudge this a bit out of Euro-food-land. I ate all of this as one serving. Was that the intention? Probably not? Do I have regrets? Not a single one."
