A quick and easy Mackerel Kedgeree recipe made with Princes Mackerel (sponsored post)

A few days ago I spoke about the difficulty that us parents have in feeding ourselves.
We spend so much time shopping, prepping and cooking for our children’s meals but on busy days at home we often end up grabbing something on the run or even skipping a meal entirely.
So I’ve teamed up with Princes to show you how easy it is to make a tasty, quick and nutritious meal for yourself either for lunch or dinner.
Using their tinned Mackerel Fillets you can whip for a meal for two in just minutes.
The first recipe I made was this super tasty 5 Minute Spicy Mackerel with Rice and today I am making a really easy but delicious Mackerel Kedgeree in just 10 minutes.

All of these recipes have been made using Princes Mackerel Fillets. There are 14 flavours in total in the range and all are skinless and boneless, making them so handy to have in the cupboard for busy days.
Princes Mackerel Fillets also count as one of your two portions of Omega-3 rich oily fish a week so when served with carbs make a really nutritious meal.

This Kedgeree recipe took just 10 minutes to prepare and cook and is absolutely perfect for a quick and easy lunch at home or a speedy dinner once the kids are in bed.

Description
A quick and easy Mackerel Kedgeree recipe made with Princes Mackerel
Ingredients
- 2 medium eggs
- 2 cans (125g each) Princes Mackerel Fillets in Olive Oil
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 tsp medium curry powder
- 250g packet of microwave rice
- 100g frozen peas
- 100ml cold water
- lemon juice and fresh parsley to serve (optional)
Instructions
- Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with boiling water. Simmer for 5 minutes and then immediately transfer them into a bowl of cold water to stop them from cooking any further. Once cool, peel the eggs and cut in half.
- Whilst the eggs are cooking open the tins of mackerel and pour about ½ tablespoon of oil from one of the tins into a frying pan. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion is soft.
- Add the curry and powder, stir well and cook for another 1 minutes.
- Next add in the microwave rice, peas and water and cook for 4 minutes.
- Finally, drain the mackerel from the remaining oil and gently fold it into the rice and leave it to warm through for about a minute.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper and then serve immediately topped with the eggs and finished with lemon juice and chopped parsley (optional).

Looking forward to trying this with my 9 year old son today. As for the new flavours I will look out for the Brazilian one. Mackerel goes surprisingly well with all kinds of flavours.

Definitely the tomato and onion ones, versatile and go with so many things, warm or cold! Although really want to try the Moroccan with apricot, nice flavour combo and would be interested in seeing how it tastes with the fish.

I usually stick to the tomato based ones but that Texas BBQ would be lovely I bet! I usually just mash tinned fish on toast for a quick lunch, but we love a kedgeree so will be trying this out soon!
