Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Large eggs
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Curry powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon Paprika (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with cold water. Ensure the water level is about 1 inch above the eggs.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let them cool for 5-10 minutes.
Carefully peel the eggs under running water to remove the shells, then slice them in half lengthwise.
Gently scoop out the yolks and place them in a small mixing bowl. Arrange the egg whites on a serving plate.
Using a fork, mash the yolks until smooth. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, curry powder, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Mix until creamy and well incorporated.
Spoon the yolk mixture back into the hollowed-out egg whites. Alternatively, use a piping bag for a neater presentation.
Sprinkle the tops with chopped cilantro and, if desired, a light dusting of paprika for garnish.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving for a chilled option.
