Crispy Brown Buttered Eggs
- 12 fresh eggs
- 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon mayo
- 1 pinch cayanne pepper
- 1 finely chopped shallot
- optional garlic powder to taste
- salt and pepper to taste
- butter for frying
- a tiny bit of extra virgin olive oil can be added if egg mixture is too dry, or if you don't like mayo
- Hard boil the eggs and when cool, shell and slice them in half, placing the yolks into a separate bowl .
- Mix the egg yolks with the Dijon, mayo, or a bit of your best olive oil if you're not a mayo lover. Add some garlic powder to taste (your choice) a pinch of cayanne and salt & pepper and what ever you choose! Meanwhile, mince a fresh shallot and saute it in olive oil until translucent and add to the egg yolk mixture when cooled.
- Then, spoon the cooled egg yolk mixture into the cooled egg white halves and heat up a fry pan with butter. When the butter is browning, place the filled egg on the yolk side down and saute for about a minute, when it should be nicely crisped!
- If you have fresh chives add them on top. If not, they're just as good as is!
