Ingredients
6 large eggs
3 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1½ tsp chili garlic sauce (like sambal oelek or sriracha blend)
1 small garlic clove, finely grated or minced
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 tsp lime or lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
For Garnish:
Pinch of chili flakes or cayenne (optional)
Chopped chives or cilantro
Drizzle of chili oil or extra chili garlic sauce
Instructions
Step 1: Hard-Boil the Eggs
Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water.
Bring to a boil, then remove from heat, cover, and let sit for 10–12 minutes.
Drain and cool eggs under cold running water or in an ice bath.
Peel carefully and pat dry.
Step 2: Prep the Filling
Slice each egg in half lengthwise.
Scoop yolks into a bowl and mash with a fork.
Add mayo, mustard, chili garlic sauce, garlic, and optional lime juice.
Mix until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3: Fill the Egg Whites
Transfer the filling into a piping bag or zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
Pipe or spoon the spicy mixture into the egg white halves.
Step 4: Garnish & Serve
Sprinkle with chili flakes, herbs, or a tiny drizzle of chili oil for presentation.
Chill for 15–30 minutes before serving for best flavor.
Notes
Use older eggs – They peel more easily after boiling
Chill before filling – Makes yolks firmer and easier to handle
Blend the filling – Use a food processor for ultra-smooth texture
Balance the heat – Add more chili garlic sauce if you like it hot
Add crunch – Top with crispy shallots or sesame seeds
