Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Eggs
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill (optional)
Instructions
Place the eggs in a medium saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
Once the water begins to boil, lower the heat to a gentle simmer and cook the eggs for 8-10 minutes for hard-boiled eggs.
While the eggs cook, peel and finely chop the yellow onion.
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter has melted, add the chopped onion.
Cook the onion for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is golden brown and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
When the eggs are finished boiling, transfer them to a bowl of ice water to cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and roughly chop them.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped eggs, caramelized onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to combine.
If desired, sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped dill as a garnish.
Serve warm or at room temperature over toasted bread, alongside potatoes, or as a simple side dish.
