We stole the concept for this spicy meatless main from a popular English brunch dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 onion, coarsely chopped

  • 2 tsp curry powder

  • 1/2 tsp ground coriander

  • 1 cup long-grain white rice

  • 500-mL carton chicken broth

  • 125 g smoked trout or smoked salmon

  • 2 hard-cooked eggs, peeled

  • 1 to 2 tomatoes

  • 1 cup chopped cilantro

Instructions

  • Lightly coat a large saucepan with oil and set over medium heat. Add onion and stir often until it starts to soften, 3 min. Stir in curry powder, ground coriander and rice until well coated, about 1 min. Add carton of chicken broth (if using canned broth, also add ¾ cup/175 mL water). Bring to a boil over high heat. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer until rice is tender and liquid absorbed, 18 to 20 min. Remove from heat. Let stand 5 min.

  • Meanwhile, break salmon into chunks. If using canned fish, drain, then remove and discard skin and bones, if you wish. Slice eggs and tomato into wedges. Fluff rice with a fork and stir in cilantro. Spoon onto a platter. Scatter salmon overtop. Arrange egg and tomato wedges on rice. Serve right away or refrigerate until cold. Rice will keep well, covered and refrigerated, up to 2 days, but add fish, eggs and tomato just before serving.
