These are 2 variations to a recipe I liked a lot as a child since my grandmother was doing it quite often. It is always done around easter a lot when a lot of hard boiled eggs remain in the house but any occasion is fine :) In romanian it’s called “oua umplute” which means filled eggs.

Spicy eggs Spicy eggs

Preparation

  • hard boiled eggs
  • most commonly we use mayo but I also like to use spices blended together as a thick and very “hot” paste:
    • mustard seeds
    • 2 hot peppers
    • coriander seeds
    • 2 gloves garlic
    • 1 green onion
    • a bit of pickled ginger
    • sunflower oil
  • peal and cut the eggs in half lengthwise
  • remove the yolk and mix it with the paste (or the mayo)
  • with a teaspoon put the mix back in the egg
  • serve with bread
  • enjoy
