Kedgeree for tea!
I had a friend coming for dinner this evening, and I wanted to make something warming and hearty. I was wracking my brains as to what I could do, and then I remembered that I had two pieces of beautiful smoked haddock in the freezer that needed eating. I always have rice, I always have …
