Kedgeree

Method

1. Heat oil and butter in a non-stick pan, add onion and saute till the onion becomes a light golden.
2. Add curry powder and mix well. Add ¼ cup water and mix. Add green peas, tuna and a little salt and mix.
3. Add rice and mix. Add ½ cup water and mix with a wooden spatula mashing the rice slightly. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
4. Switch off the heat and let the dish cool slightly.
5. Grease a spring bottom aluminium mould with a little oil. Arrange a little fried onions only on one side of the base – this will look like hair, place the olive halves in such a way that they look eyes. Cut a thin vertical slice off one side of the tomato and cut it into strips. Place one strip to look like the nose and two strips to look like smiley mouth.
6. Now fill up the mould with the kedgeree carefully so that when it is demoulded the face we made is not disturbed. Press the kedgeree lightly.
7. Upturn the mould on a serving plate carefully and carefully remove the mould. Serve immediately.
