Please note you will find the full list of ingredients in the recipe card below.
To make this recipe you will need: Eggs, Mayonnaise, Curry Powder and Chives. You may also wish to season your curry eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
When making this recipe we use large eggs (approximately 70 grams) and also recommend using whole egg mayonnaise for extra flavour. If you would like a stronger curry kick you can use 1 ½ – 2 teaspoons of curry powder.
How to Make Curried Eggs
Step 1. Boil the eggs. This can be done either by placing the eggs in a saucepan filled with boiling water or by using the egg boiling function on your Thermomix.
Step 2. Once cooked and slightly cooled, peel the eggs and cut in half. Place onto a plate.
Step 3. Remove the egg yolk (I like to do this using a teaspoon) and place into a bowl (or your Thermomix if using).
Step 4. Mash the egg yolks.
Step 5. Finely chop the chives and add them to the mashed egg yolks along with the mayonnaise and curry powder. Mix well to combine.
Step 6. Place the curry mixture into a ziplock bag (or piping bag) and cut the end off. Pipe the mixture into the egg whites.
Step 7. Garnish with chives (optional) and serve!
Recipe Hints and Tips
This recipe can be doubled or halved depending on your needs.
You can make these Curried Eggs a day in advance. Enjoy within three days and store in an airtight container in the fridge.
I use either a piping bag or a ziplock bag with the corner cut to pipe the curried egg mixture. You can also use a teaspoon to add the curried yolk mixture into the eggs.
If using a decorative tip when piping, ensure the egg yolks are completely mashed, as otherwise they will block the tip
Frequently Asked Questions
When stored in an airtight container (or covered with cling wrap) in the fridge, curried eggs will last up to three days.
Let the water reach its boiling point before adding the eggs. Also the addition of a tablespoon of vinegar to the boiling water will help make hard boiled eggs easier to peel.
