The method

1

Bring a pot of water to the boil and lower in the eggs. Allow to simmer for 7 minutes. Remove from the water and run under a cold tap, allow them to cool completely.

2

Rinse the rice under cold water and allow it to soak. Wash and slice your leeks.

3

Heat the butter in a large pan and add in the leeks. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until softened.

4

Stir in the curry powder and cook for 1 minute. Add the drained rice and stock and bring to a simmer. Put on the lid, turn down the heat and cook for 12 minutes.

5

The rice should have absorbed the stock, but add a splash of water if it needs it.

6

Stir in the trout and season to taste. Peel the eggs and quarter them.

7

Serve the kedgeree and place the eggs on top. Scatter over the dill and squeeze over the lemon juice. Enjoy!
