Kedgeree; Curried Fish, Rice and Egg (Dairy and Gluten Free)

I have recently been exploring old recipes as they use real foods.  I discovered Kedgeree and love it.  From what I understand, Kedgeree was typically a breakfast food, as it used up leftovers and provided energy for the day ahead.

 This dish originated in India and was brought to the United Kingdom as early as the 1400's. Kedgeree is often made with a smoked Haddock but other fish can be substituted.  I used salmon but definitely think you could use cod, halibut, tilapia either fresh, frozen or leftover;)

Ingredients (serves 6)

• 2 hard boiled eggs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 diced onion

• 3 cups water + more if needed

• salt and pepper to taste

2. Remove fish and reserve the fish water from the pot and set aside
3. In the pot heat oil and cook onion for 3-5 minutes, add garlic and curry and fry another minute.
4. Measure reserved fish water and add water if needed to get 3 cups total.  Add to pot with onions.

7. Add parsley, lemon juice, salt and pepper to the fish and eggs.
