Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- ½ cup panko breadcrumbs
- ½ cup plain regular breadcrumbs
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 3 Tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon fresh dill, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon white pepper
- Paprika, for garnish
- Extra fresh dill, for garnish
Instructions
- Place the 6 large eggs in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove eggs and cool them in an ice bath.
- Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Scoop out the yolks and set aside the egg whites.
- Mash the yolks until smooth and mix with mayonnaise, fresh dill, Dijon mustard, salt, and white pepper. Cover and refrigerate while preparing the egg whites.
- Set up a breading station with all-purpose flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of panko and regular breadcrumbs in separate bowls.
- Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- Dredge each egg white half in flour, dip in beaten eggs, and coat in breadcrumbs, pressing gently for an even layer.
- Fry the breaded egg whites in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Once slightly cooled, fill each fried egg white half with the chilled yolk mixture using a piping bag or spoon.
- Garnish with paprika and fresh dill, and serve immediately.
Notes
Ensure oil is at the right temperature to achieve a crispy exterior.
Feel free to adjust seasonings in the yolk mixture to suit your taste.
Serve them fresh for the best flavor and texture.
