Dressed eggs

Also known as devilled eggs, there are three different toppings here but the possibilities are endless – we've decorated with nori flakes, sesame seeds and spring onion curls; urfa chilli flakes, coriander leaves and chopped toasted almonds; and chives, fish roe and radish slices

Ingredients

  • 9 eggs
  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp full-fat greek yogurt
  • 1 tsp dijon mustard
  • seaweed or nori flakes, sea salt flakes and urfa chilli flakes, to garnish
  • chives, finely chopped
  • spring onion, cut into thin curls
  • coriander leaves
  • toasted almonds, chopped
  • fish roe
  • radish, thinly sliced

Directions

  • STEP 1

    Bring a pan of water to a simmer, carefully lower in 9 room-temperature eggs and simmer for 10 mins, then transfer to a bowl of ice-cold water to quickly cool.

  • STEP 2

    Peel the eggs, then halve them. Scoop the yolks out into a bowl. Mash with 4 tbsp of mayonnaise, 2 tbsp of full-fat greek yogurt, 1 tsp of dijon mustard and some seasoning until you have a smooth paste. Spoon into a piping bag fitted with a plain or fluted nozzle.

  • STEP 3

    Tip some seaweed or nori flakes onto a small plate, sea salt flakes and urfa chilli flakes onto another, and finely chopped chives onto a third.

  • STEP 4

    Press a third of the egg halves into each mixture, cut-side down, then pipe the yolk mixture into the holes to fill them.

  • STEP 5

    Decorate the tops with nori flakes, sesame seeds and spring onion curls; urfa chilli flakes, coriander leaves and chopped toasted almonds; or chives, fish roe and radish slices.
