Description

A flavorful and easy-to-make Curried Egg Salad combining boiled eggs with creamy mayonnaise, aromatic curry powder, crisp grated carrot, and fresh green onion, perfect as a protein-rich lunch or sandwich filling.


Ingredients

Egg Salad Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup grated carrot
  • 1 green onion, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley


Instructions

  1. Boil the Eggs: Bring a pot of water to a boil, then reduce heat to a gentle simmer to prepare for cooking the eggs gently and evenly.
  2. Cook the Eggs: Carefully lower the eggs into the simmering water and cook for 12 to 14 minutes until fully hard-boiled.
  3. Cool the Eggs: Transfer the cooked eggs to an ice bath to stop cooking and cool completely for easy peeling.
  4. Peel and Chop: Peel the cooled eggs and chop them into chunky pieces to maintain texture in the salad.
  5. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, mix the chopped eggs, mayonnaise, grated carrot, sliced green onion, curry powder, salt, and black pepper thoroughly until well combined.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Garnish the egg salad with chopped parsley for freshness and a pop of color before serving.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, chill the salad for 30 minutes before serving.
  • Use light mayonnaise to reduce calories without sacrificing creaminess.
  • Adjust curry powder amount to taste depending on your spice preference.
  • Serve on whole-grain bread or with crackers for a delicious sandwich or appetizer.
  • Keep refrigerated and consume within 2 days for best freshness.
