Soup of the Month, Kedgeree

I can almost smell the sea! If you like Kedgeree, you’ll love New Covent Garden Soup Kedgeree soup. Flaked, Atlantic smoked haddock cooked with long grain rice, onions and herbs; then flavoured with delicate curry spices. They use undyed haddock, the warm yellow colouring comes from the use of authentic turmeric. It’s traditionally garnished with chopped, hard boiled eggs - so feel free to add your own!
