Now it has occurred to me that I won't be able to get smoked haddock in Auckland........ how the heck will I make Kedgeree? Any substitutes? It's one of our favourites, especially the kids

Kedgeree

You can get smoked fish here. Actually you can get lots of smoked fish here but it won't be quite the same.

Can I get it from anywhere? Any suggestions on which ones to try first?

BEVS

Haddock ? No.

I'll have a think 'bout this.

hosebergine

won't be able to sleep with anticipation now

I guess with a load of mango chutney you won't be able to tell which fish you've used!!!!

Am Loolah

Friends bought round smoked trout dip the other evening - ooooo it was good!

Oooh, now you have me thinking about smoked haddock, which I hadn't thought about for ayyyges - poop no Cullen Skink either.

Perhaps you could try hot smoked salmon in your kedgeree. It's not like smoked (as in raw salmon), because it is cooked and flaky. It's nice anyway!! You can get it from most supermarkets.

I had a pasta dish in a restaurant that had smoked salmon in a creamy sauce, very nice! So I imagine it would work quite well with rice too.

corrr the salmon sounds really good, as does the smoked trout dip

Keep them coming, my tummy is rumbling

Them's not a smoked white fish though. It needs to be like Haddock , the likes of which I am yet to find here.

Waiting in anticipation. I LOVE smoked haddock.

I take it you can't get smoked Hoki then?

Numptyhead

No idea but will know soon. OH is a keen fisherman and has just posted the question on a NZ fishing forum...lol

Numptyhead

LOL....OH really didn't want to post this question...anyway, some fishermen suggested I try some smoked possum as they reckon it will taste just about the same.....how very rude.....

Their opinion is that fish is a whole different experience in NZ and will taste wonderful compared to smoked haddock

MnB

Yep, can agree on that .... had blue nose, hoki and lemon shark from fush n chup shop......ate out of paper sat by estuary on a warm evening sharing a btl of vino ..... better than any fish I've eaten ever!!

You just wait Maria!
