  I would add an extra 1/2tbsp of curry paste next time, and some sliced spring onions at the end with the corriander.

  We eat Kedgeree a fair bit and it is always well recieved but i wasn't a fan of this recipe. I found smoked mackerel far too strong and the whole dish tasted and smelt extremely fishy, the other tastes were completely.

  This is one of my favourite quick meals. It is very strongly mackerel-ish, though: fine if you're as partial to the stuff as I am, perhaps worth avoiding if you're not quite as keen!

  Hm, very interesting! Basically a variation on a Kedgeree. I added slivers of carrot, green beans, broccoli and squash pieces instead of the peas. I haven't cooked rice in a microwave before so wasn't sure what to expect, but it worked fine (though I had to add more stock as it dried out quickly, but that is probably because I had to adjust the quantities for one). Overall, yes, very nice and definitely quick, so great for after work. I think it needs something fresh (like a cucumber salad) on the side and it would be perfect.

  This is really lovely, we very much enjoy it and use it a lot mid week for a quick supper. We use madras paste with mackerel as it is stronger and makes a very tasty dish. The fish is strong but we enjoy that.

  The makarel was too strong which is a pity. It may work well with not smoked fish.

  I used more curry paste and added extra broccoli to it. I also used quinoa instead of rice and cooked it on the stove. It was lovely, and quick to make. I love smoked mackerel so didn't find it too strong at all. I will definately make it again.

  This was a good way of using up some mackerel, it was easy to make and tasty but maybe a bit salty.

  I poached some smoked wild salmon, which came by mistake with my online shop. It was very tasty in this dish and probably not as strong tasting as the mackerel would have been (and no bones). I liked the addition of the creme fraiche, making it creamy and moist. My husband thought it was "rather good".

  This is delicious and super easy! My husband loves it (great as he wont eat much fish). I like LOTS of spring onions, coriander and fresh lemon juice in it.

  Quick, delicious and a great way to eat mackerel. I used tikka paste. It only serves three as a main meal, unless served with a side.

  I love this recipe but I normally only have basmati rice in the house. I find that with basmati I have to add 700 rather 600 mil liquid and cook the rice initially for 10 mins rather than 8. Thought this might be helpful for others in this situation.
