Deviled eggs in disguise

Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs, hard-boiled and peeled (see tip)
  • ¼ cup minced smoked salmon (about 1 oz/28 g)
  • 2 tbsp light mayonnaise (see tip)
  • 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp honey mustard
  • 1 tbsp minced fresh dill, or ½ tsp dried (fresh is best!)
  • ¼ tsp each salt, freshly ground black pepper and hot pepper sauce
  • Paprika for garnish (optional)

Method: 

Carefully slice cooked eggs in half lengthwise and remove yolks. Place yolks in a medium bowl and mash well using a fork. Add remaining ingredients and mix well.

Using a small spoon, fill centres of eggs with egg mixture, mounding slightly. (Note: If you have a pastry bag with a large tip, you can use it to pipe the filling back into the centers of the eggs. The smoked salmon will clog a small tip, so make sure you use a larger one.)

Sprinkle filling with paprika, if desired. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
