HUEVOS RELLENOS

Deviled Eggs! So many memories from my childhood! Very common in many countries. Lots of ways of making them. But always with a common ingredient, of course. Hard boiled eggs. Let’s make some Deviled Eggs!

Ingredients:

5 eggs

1 3-ounce tuna can

1 teaspoon Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce

1 tablespoon mayonnaise

10 teaspoons mayonnaise

Some salt to taste

Some freshly ground black pepper to taste

Some roasted red pepper

The first thing will be boiling the eggs. Put the eggs in a pan and fill with water. Heat it and bring it to a boil. Cook for about ten minutes. Let them cool. When they are cold, remove the shells from the eggs. Cut the eggs in half lengthwise. Remove the egg yolks and put them in a bowl or container, but reserving two yolks. Blend and mix the yolks a little. Remove all the liquid from the tuna can. Then add it to the bowl. Mix well. Now you can add one tablespoon of mayonnaise and the Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce. Mix well again. Add some black pepper and salt to taste.

When everything is well mixed, you can start filling the eggs. Once they are filled, cover them with the rest of the mayonnaise sauce. Then take the two yolks that we reserved and grate them over the eggs.

The last thing will be cutting the roasted red peppers in strips and decorating the eggs. Put two strips making a cross on top of every egg. That will make them even more delicious.

Put them in the fridge for at least two hours. They will be ready then. Perfect as sides, for parties… And of course, remember that you can give your touch to your Deviled Eggs. Use your imagination. Enjoy!
