Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Large eggs
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons (finely chopped) Fresh chives
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon (for garnish) Paprika
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium-sized saucepan and cover them with cold water, ensuring the water level is about 1 inch above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer gently for 10 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water. Let them sit for 2 minutes to cool completely.
Carefully peel the eggs and then slice them in half lengthwise. Gently scoop out the yolks and transfer them to a mixing bowl.
Using a fork, mash the yolks until they are smooth and crumbly.
Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, ground cumin, finely chopped chives, salt, and black pepper to the mashed yolks. Mix until the filling is smooth and well combined.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves, dividing it evenly among the 12 pieces.
Sprinkle the tops of the stuffed eggs with a pinch of paprika for a pop of color and extra flavor.
Chill the stuffed eggs in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve these cumin and chive stuffed eggs cold and garnish with extra chopped chives if desired.
