Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9 / air fryer 200C
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Boil a half-full kettle
  • Pull out a large frying pan, a slotted spoon, a grater, a measuring jug & sieve

Cook the rice & egg

  • Add the rice and half the turmeric to the saucepan and boil for 25-30 mins, until cooked, then drain
  • Rinse the egg, then carefully lower into the rice pan. Boil for 7 mins, then remove with a slotted spoon and run under cold water

Do the prep & cook the fish

  • Trim the green beans and cut into thirds. Dice the pepper into 1cm chunks. Finely slice the onion and garlic. Zest and cut the lemon into wedges. Rinse the spinach
  • Dissolve the creamed coconut in the jug with 250ml boiling water (125ml for 1 person)
  • Place the haddock onto the lined baking tray. Drizzle with 1 tsp oil and roast for 17 mins / air fryer 15 mins, until cooked through

Start the kedgeree

  • Heat the large frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the green beans, onion and pepper and cook for 3-4 mins, until starting to soften. Season with salt and pepper
  • Add the garlic, curry powder, lemon zest and remaining turmeric. Cook for 1 min

Build the dish

  • Add the coconut mixture and stock powder and bring to the boil, then simmer for 3-4 mins
  • When ready, stir in the cooked rice and spinach for 1-2 mins, until hot and wilted
  • Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque and separate easily with a fork
  • Flake the smoked haddock with a fork, discarding the skin, then stir into the pan with a squeeze of lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper

Plate up

  • Carefully peel the egg and cut into quarters
  • Share the kedgeree between bowls, topped with the egg slices. Serve with the remaining lemon wedges for squeezing over
