Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoon white vinegar

  • 1 ½ Tablespoons sweet pickle relish
  • 1 teaspoon yellow mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Harissa

  • Cover the pot and take it off heat. Let it sit for 15 minutes.
  • Place eggs in ice cold water for 3 minutes.
  • Gently crack each egg and place again in cold water for another 2 minutes to let the water seep between the shell and the egg or you can peel the eggs under cold water.
  • Gently peel eggs and cut each one lengthwise.
  • In a separate bowl, take off the yolks.
  • Add mayo and mash well with the yolks.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.
  • Fill a piping bag with the yolk mixture and fill the egg whites.
  • Sprinkle with paprika or cayenne pepper or za’atar.

Notes

  • The vinegar is added to the water to prevent eggs from cracking.
  • The water needs to be rapidly boiling before you turn off the heat and cover.
  • You can spoon the filling on top of the white yolks if you do not have a piping bag.
  • Mash the yolks with the mayonnaise with either a fork or a potato masher.
