Ingredients
For the Egg Salad
- 4 Eggs large, semi-soft boiled
- 6 tbsp Mayonnaise
- 1-2 tbsp Chives finely chopped, or substitute with 1-2 tbsp finely chopped green onions
- 1/2 tsp Salt or to taste
- 1/4 tsp Pepper black, freshly ground, or to taste
Instructions
Prepare the Eggs
- Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes for semi-soft yolks. Immediately transfer eggs to an ice bath to stop cooking. Once cool, peel and roughly mash with a fork.
Make the Egg Salad
- In a medium bowl, combine the mashed eggs, mayonnaise, chives, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Toast the Buns
- Preheat oven to 160-170°C (320-340°F). Lightly butter the buns, if desired. Toast for 5-10 minutes, or until lightly golden and crispy.
Assemble the Sandwiches
- Spread a generous amount of egg salad onto the bottom half of each toasted bun. Top with the other half of the bun. Serve immediately. Optional: add lettuce and tomato for extra flavor and texture.
