Devilled Eggs Easy Recipe for Christmas
The first Christmas recipe that I am posting this year is this! I decided to start with the appetizers, since last year I posted lots of sweet ideas. And since now the circumstances changed and I can barely eat sweet, I want to switch the order.
Growing up in Romania I used to have these eggs everytime we had a celebration. They still are a very beloved appetizer, although it's a little bit heavy, if you ask me. This is why we only eat it on special occasions😅 once you have one, you cannot stop, that's how good they are😍
My personal touch to these devilled eggs was a yummy Asian marinade in which I have kept the eggs for a couple of hours after boiling them. This is how they got the beautiful dark colour and extra flavour.
- 3 tbsp sos de soia dark
- few drops sesame oil
- 1 Pcs ceapă verde (tăiat mărunt)
- 1 tsp sos de stridii (optional)
- 1 tsp sos de pește (optional)
- 3 cup apă
- 6 Pcs free range eggs (boiled)
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tsp muștar
- sare și piper (după gust)
- few chives (tăiat mărunt)
- Marinate the eggs
Mix all the ingredients specified in the section "marinade" and add the peeled and boiled eggs to them. Marinate the eggs for 3-4 hours in the fridge or overnight.
I have boiled the eggs exactly 8 minutes from the time they started boiling and then I put them into a bowl with cold water and ice. This will ensure a smooth peeling without efforts.
- Filling the eggs
After the eggs have marinated, pat them dry with a clean paper towel and cut them in half. Remove the egg yolks and add them to a bowl, together with the mayonnaise, mustard, chives, salt and pepper. Mash everything well with a fork, then put the mixture into a piping bag and start piping the filling into each egg white.
Garnish with extra chives and black pepper. Enjoy!
