Ingredients
Scale
For the Eggs:
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
For the Spicy Chili Garlic Topping:
- 2 tablespoons chili crisp or chili garlic oil
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
- 1 garlic clove, minced (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon soy sauce or tamari
- Fresh cilantro or scallions, finely chopped
- Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
Optional Add-ins:
- 1/2 teaspoon sriracha or hot sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon rice vinegar or lemon juice
- Pinch of sugar
Instructions
- Boil the Eggs: Place eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil. Once boiling, remove the saucepan from heat, cover it, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes to cook through. After cooking, transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool completely, which makes peeling easier.
- Peel and Halve: Carefully peel the cooled eggs and slice each egg in half lengthwise. Gently scoop out the yolks into a mixing bowl, keeping the egg whites intact.
- Make the Filling: Mash the egg yolks with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and creamy. For extra flavor, optionally add rice vinegar or lemon juice and sriracha or hot sauce to the filling and mix well.
- Pipe or Spoon Filling: Transfer the yolk mixture into a piping bag or use a spoon to fill the hollowed egg white halves evenly with the creamy yolk mixture.
- Prepare Topping: In a small bowl, combine chili crisp or chili garlic oil, toasted sesame seeds, soy sauce or tamari, and minced garlic if using. Adjust the seasoning by adding a pinch of sugar and red pepper flakes as desired to balance the heat and flavor.
- Garnish and Serve: Drizzle the spicy chili garlic topping over the filled deviled eggs. Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or scallions for a fresh, vibrant finish. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.
Notes
- For easier peeling, use eggs that are at least a week old.
- Chili crisp or chili garlic oil can usually be found in Asian grocery stores or online.
- Adjust the amount of chili oil and sriracha based on your preferred spice level.
- The recipe can be made a few hours ahead and refrigerated; add fresh herbs just before serving.
- Use tamari instead of soy sauce for a gluten-free option.
