I tried Kegeree this week, and I was genuinely surprised by how quickly it came together — perfect for my weeknight dinner rush. The recipe's flexibility was a delight; I used some leftover poached salmon and it worked beautifully. The surprise was how well the simple combination of fish, rice, and eggs melded together, creating a comforting, creamy dish without any fancy techniques or lengthy simmering. This is a great recipe for a weeknight cook looking to transform leftovers into a satisfying meal. I found that the mustard and cayenne added a nice kick, but the real star was the soft-boiled eggs, which provided a lovely richness. Next time, I'll try it with smoked mackerel or even some canned tuna. It's a keeper for those nights when you need something warm and hearty, but don't have hours to spend in the kitchen.
