Leftover Salmon Kedgeree with Quick Mango Chutney
Kedgeree is a lovely dish that has a history dating back to the colonial era. It is believed to be based on the popular Indian dish called “Khichri”, which is a fragrant potpourri of lentils, rice and spices. The re-adapted and reinterpreted dish Kedgeree consists of rice, boiled eggs and fish, generally smoked haddock but other fish can be used. My version of Kedgeree with no sugar mango chutney is an easy and delicious way to use up leftover salmon creating a hearty meal the whole family will enjoy.
Polenta Upma
There are many reasons to love polenta. I often make a large tray of polenta and freeze the leftover so that it can be used for fries, croutons, tapas snacks and upma. When I did a post on polenta cakes with crunchy cilantro pesto, I said to freeze the scraps that you get from cutting polenta rounds for anther recipe. Upma, was that recipe I was talking about.
