Kedgeree is a Victorian fusion food born in the days of the British Raj. The dish is a melting pot of Anglo-Indian flavours, with smoked fish and hard-boiled egg sitting alongside delicious spice infused rice. The milder Asian flavours suited the more reserved Victorian palate and kedgeree soon graced breakfast tables up and down the land. The dish’s easy adaptability has ensured its continued success and today remains a staple of British food culture.
