If you’ve never made devilled eggs before, you’re missing out! These little retro beauties are having a moment again, and I’m so here for it. They’re creamy, tasty, and always a hit at Easter, Christmas, picnics, BBQs… or even just a cheeky weekend snack. 😉

Optional bonus twist: A spoonful of finely diced picklesI haven’t tried it yet, but it’s a game changer
Instructions
Boil your eggs – Pop the eggs in a saucepan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Once they’re bubbling away, set a timer for 10 minutes.
When the time’s up, carefully drain and pop the eggs straight into an ice bath (just a bowl of water with ice cubes). This stops them from cooking and makes peeling them so much easier.
Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthways. Scoop out the yolks gently. I use a teaspoon and take my time so the whites don’t tear.
In a bowl, mash the yolks together with the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, vinegar, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Mash it until it’s smooth and creamy. Taste and tweak if needed!
Now, spoon or pipe the mixture back into the egg whites. If you’re feeling fancy, use a piping bag (or a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off). If not, a spoon works perfectly fine!
Sprinkle with paprika and chopped parsley. Serve them up and watch them disappear!
