Recipe information

  • Yield

    makes 24

Ingredients

1 dozen eggs
6 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 teaspoon cayenne
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 ounce salmon caviar, for garnish
1/4 bunch fresh chives, minced, for garnish

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Put the eggs in your largest pot and cover with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water boils, turn off the heat, cover the pot, and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 20 minutes. Cool the eggs by running them under cool water. Peel them and cut them in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop the egg yolks into a food processor. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, curry, cayenne, and salt and pepper and puree until smooth.

    Step 2

    Classically, the yolk filling is piped into the egg white using a pastry bag fitted with a star tip. This presentation is very old school but it’s actually a really quick method, too. If you prefer, use a teaspoon to fill the eggs. They’ll look great either way. Garnish the eggs with the caviar and chives.
