Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 6 eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
  • 1/2 to 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped
  • 3/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt, plus more for the shallots
  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup vegetable or peanut oil

Instruction

  • Slice the eggs in half and scoop the yolks into a bowl. Set the whites aside on a plate.
  • Smash the yolks with the back of a fork. Add 1/2 cup Greek yogurt and stir until well combined. Mix in the sun-dried tomatoes, smoked paprika and salt.
  • Taste and, if you wish, add the remaining yogurt 1 tablespoon at a time until you reach the desired consistency. Adding the entire cup of yogurt will make quite a lot of filling and it will be thin. I prefer my eggs very creamy, so I do add the whole cup.
  • In a small saucepan, heat oil over medium heat. Test the oil with a slice of shallot – when it instantly sizzles, it's ready. Add the shallot slices to the pan and cook until they turn golden brown. Using a slotted spoon, remove them from the pan and place on a paper towel. While they're still hot, sprinkle lightly with salt.
  • Using a small spoon, fill each egg white with a generous amount of filling.
  • If serving immediately, top each one with a frizzled shallot. Or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate, and top with shallots just before serving. Best eaten within a few hours.
