Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Gently lower the eggs into the water and boil them for 7 minutes for soft-boiled or 10 minutes for hard-boiled eggs.
Once the eggs are done, transfer them to a bowl filled with ice water to cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs and set them aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Mix well to create a spicy sauce.
Roughly chop the peeled eggs and fold them into the spicy sauce mixture until well combined.
Lightly toast the slices of wholemeal bread. Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice.
Take four slices of the toast as the base. Layer each with a large lettuce leaf followed by a generous scoop of the spicy egg mixture.
Top the egg mixture with tomato slices and cover with the remaining slices of toast. Gently press down on each sandwich to secure the layers.
Cut the sandwiches in half diagonally for easier serving and enjoy immediately.
