Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground sumac
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 stalks scallions (green onions)
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pack pita chips or crackers
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium-sized saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the water reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer gently for 9 minutes.
Carefully transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for at least 5 minutes. Peel the eggs once cooled and set them aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, ground cumin, ground sumac, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly to form a spiced dressing.
Finely chop the parsley and scallions, and add them to the bowl with the dressing.
Dice the peeled eggs into small, even pieces and fold them gently into the dressing mixture until everything is well-coated.
Drizzle the olive oil on top of the salad for a finishing touch of richness.
Serve immediately with pita chips or crackers, or refrigerate for later use in sandwiches, wraps, or as a dip. Enjoy!
