Looking for a unique way to enjoy boiled eggs? Here’s a recipe for stuffed eggs that’s simple to make and perfect as a finger food. Add a touch of spicy Sriracha sauce to customize the flavor to your liking!
Main Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- A little bit of dill pickles
- A little bit of Sriracha sauce (optional)
Seasoning & Sauce
- 1 tsp mustard sauce
- 2 tsp mayonnaise
- A pinch of salt
- A pinch of black pepper
- 1 tsp mustard sauce
- 2 tsp mayonnaise
- A pinch of salt
- A pinch of black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, place the 4 eggs in a pot and cover them with enough water to submerge. Bring the water to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 10-12 minutes until hard-boiled. Immediately transfer the cooked eggs to cold water to cool, then carefully peel them.
Step 2
After peeling, carefully trim a tiny bit off one end of each egg to create a flat surface. This will help them stand upright nicely later. Then, carefully slice each egg in half lengthwise, ensuring the yolks don’t fall out.
Step 3
Place the separated egg yolks into a small bowl. Add 1 teaspoon of mustard sauce and 2 teaspoons of mayonnaise. Season with a pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper, if desired, and mix well. Use a fork to mash the yolks finely, blending them smoothly with the sauces to achieve a creamy consistency.
Step 4
Using a piping bag or a small spoon, carefully fill the egg white halves with the yolk mixture. Overfill them slightly to create a mounded effect for a more appealing presentation. If using a spoon, be gentle to avoid breaking the egg whites.
Step 5
Finely chop the dill pickles. Sprinkle the chopped pickles over the top of the stuffed egg whites. The tanginess of the pickles will cut through the richness and add a pleasant texture.
Step 6
For an extra kick, add a drizzle of Sriracha sauce over the chopped pickles according to your preference. This spicy addition creates a more exciting stuffed egg. Arrange the finished stuffed eggs on a platter and serve as delightful finger food or appetizers.
