An Asian inspired deviled egg which makes a perfect party snack or light appetizer.
Ingredients
Marinade
- ¾ cup soy sauce
- 6 tablespoons warm water
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
Filling
- 6 medium eggs
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons ginger paste
- 1 teaspoon Chinese mustard
- Scallions (garnish)
- Shredded carrot (garnish)
- Sriracha (dressing)
How to Make It
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the 6 marinade ingredients, stir until incorporated and put to one side.
- Place the eggs in a pot, in a single layer. Cover the eggs with 1-2” of water. Over high heat, bring to a boil. When the eggs come to the boil, cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Continue cooking for between 12-15 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bath of ice.
- When the eggs have cooled, peel and completely submerge them in the marinade. Transfer them to the refrigerator for 3-4 hours.
- Halve each egg and place the yolks in a bowl. Add the mayonnaise, along with the ginger and mustard. Mash the yolks into the mayonnaise-mustard mixture until creamy.
- Using a plastic spatula, transfer the mixture to a re-sealable zip lock bag, snip the end off one corner of the bag and pipe the filling into the egg halves.
- Sprinkle with scallions, shredded carrots, and sriracha.
