Ingredients
Scale
Eggs
- 6 large eggs
Filling
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Garnish
- 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional)
- Chopped fresh cilantro or green onions
Instructions
- Boil the Eggs: Place 6 large eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 12 minutes to achieve perfectly hard-boiled eggs.
- Prepare an Ice Bath: While eggs cook, fill a large bowl with ice water to stop cooking and ease peeling.
- Cool the Eggs: Transfer cooked eggs to the ice bath using a slotted spoon and let sit for about 5 minutes until fully cooled.
- Peel the Eggs: Gently tap each egg on a hard surface and roll it to crack the shell, then peel under cold running water for easier removal.
- Make the Filling: Slice peeled eggs in half lengthwise and carefully scoop out yolks into a bowl. Mash the yolks with a fork and mix in 3 tablespoons mayonnaise, 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce, 1 teaspoon rice vinegar, salt, and pepper until creamy and smooth.
- Pipe the Filling: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves for a neat presentation.
- Garnish and Serve: Drizzle sriracha on top if desired and sprinkle with chopped cilantro or green onions. Serve immediately for best flavor and freshness.
Notes
- You can substitute mayonnaise with avocado for a healthier, creamy filling.
- Adjust the amount of chili garlic sauce and sriracha to control the heat level.
- Peeling eggs under running water reduces shell sticking.
- Use a piping bag for elegant presentation or a spoon for rustic style.
- These deviled eggs are best served fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 1 day.
