Grandma's stuffed eggs

Spread the love

Ingredients for 6 servings:

  • 6 eggs
  • 150 g ham, raw
  • 2 large gherkins
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 2 tbsp cucumber juice
  • 1 tsp mustard
  • salt and pepper

Instructions

Working time approx. 20 minutes; Rest time approx. 12 hours; Cooking/baking time approx. 10 minutes; Total time approx. 12 hours 30 minutes

Boil the eggs hard, let them cool, and halve them. Remove the egg yolks and mix them in a bowl with the oil, mustard, and pickle juice. Remove any fat from the sliced ​​ham, which should not be too soft, and cut into fine cubes. Finely dice the cucumbers and mix everything into the egg yolk mixture with a fork. Season everything to taste with salt and pepper; not too much, as the ham – depending on the type – will retain its flavor as it marinates. It’s best to refrigerate the mixture for several hours or overnight and then season again. Now divide everything between the egg halves using two teaspoons and serve on a plate. The amount of oil and pickle juice can be varied depending on the desired creaminess and taste.
