Dora (see new note)

Here's a British recipe you might like to try.
I've not tried it, but it's certainly easy.

* Exported from MasterCook *

Jugged Kippers

4 Kippers
1 pint Boiling water
1 ounce Butter -- softened
1 tbsp. Fresh parsley -- chopped

Remove the head and tail from each kipper.
Pack the kippers into a tall warmed jug.
Pour the boiling water over the kippers and put a plate on top to seal in
the heat.

After 6 or 7 minutes, drain the kippers on some absorbent kitchen paper and
serve on hot plates. Brush with butter and serve at once sprinkled with
parsley.
