am cooking the last of the fish I bought last week. Kippers.
So anyone ever curried kippers? Or any quick tips/alternatives before I get on it?
Cheers |  |

I have never curried a kipper, but kippers, tea and toast is one of the all-time breakfast greats. The kippers from the Lowestoft smokehouse are/were out of this world as well, no 'orrible orange dye malarkey either. [Post edited 11 Jan 2021 14:55]

Here's what you do:
1) Bin the kippers
2) Make a proper curry with chickpeas, lentils, potato and as many other veg as you can cram in. |  |

My cooking skill are vastly improved once you take meat, fish and eggs out of the process.
I've come to realise that's mainly because I don't like them that much. My vegan/vegetarian cooking would surprise you. Just in case Facters/Hoppy are logged in I mean that in a positive way... | |

But then my bin will smell of kippers and the bin men don't come for another 2 weeks... | |

I've curried fish before but never Kippers to be fair
Both pretty strong flavours and I think in a curry Kippers would be wrong
Nice piece of Monkfish or perhaps Sea Bass would be better
Fish in a curry though done right is amazing |  |

I might be misunderstanding BL, but I thought he was intending to make some sort of kedgeree type of dish... | |

Now you're talking - but too late.
The potatoes are on the boil - so will go for hash. | |

Oh yes - the best. My dad often worked in Lowestoft, always looked forwards to the proper kippers from there. |  |

Argh right....Kippers in a Kedgeree would be amazing !! Plenty of coriander and a couple of boiled eggs and some mint yoghurt !! | |

Depends how much effort you want to put in but this would be quite nice:
- Cook the kippers quickly then remove the flesh from the skin and bones.
- Make some mash (one potato should be enough).
- Mix the mash and kipper flesh with some dill and season and put in the fridge to chill.
- Once chilled make cakes of the mixture, dip in flour, eggs and then breadcrumbs.
- Blanc some spinach and purify with garlic.
- Make some risotto and towards the end fold in the spinach puree.
- Poach an egg.
- Quickly fry the fish cakes on both sides to crisp out the outside.
- Spinach risotto, then fish cake, poached egg on top.

I was about to suggest exactly that.
No point in trying to flavour something as strong as kippers, but they work fine flaked in a kedgeree. |  |

Many years ago there was a Pullman train service from Brighton to London every morning, serving a full breakfast.
Then they stopped serving kippers.
Sir Laurence Olivier wrote and complained to British Rail about the removal of kippers from the menu.
Next time he was in the dining car the waiter proudly told him 'we've restored kippers to the menu for you, Sir Laurence.'
'My dear boy', he replied, 'I don't like kippers. It was wrong to see they'd been removed from the menu'. |  |
