Salmon & Coriander Kedgeree
Kedgeree actually originated in India and began its life as khichari, a dish of rice and lentils, but it slowly transformed into a dish made of succulent flaked salmon with a spicy rice and coriander. Kedgeree is considered a breakfast dish but you can enjoy it as a light lunch or evening meal.
