Egg Salad Sandwich Recipe

Ingredients:

6 large Eggs

1-2 tbsp. of Mayonnaise

Salt (to taste)

Black Pepper (Pisi Kaali Mirch) (to taste)

A tiny squeeze of Lemon Juice

2 stalks of Celery (washed & chopped)

½ bunch of Chives (chopped)

2 small handfulls of Lettuce

8 slices of Whole Grain Bread (toasted)

Directions:

Place the eggs in a pot and cover with cold water by a 1/2-inch or so. Bring to a gentle boil. Now turn off the heat, cover, and let sit for exactly seven minutes. Have a big bowl of ice water ready and when the eggs are done cooking place them in the ice bath for three minutes or so - long enough to stop the cooking. Crack and peel each egg, place in a medium mixing bowl. Add the mayonnaise, a couple generous pinches of salt and pepper, now mash with a fork. Don't overdo it, you want the egg mixture to have some texture. If you need to add a bit more mayo to moisten up the mixture a bit, go for it a bit at a time.

Stir in the celery and chives. Taste, and adjust the seasoning - adding more salt and pepper if needed.

To assemble each egg salad sandwich: place a bit of lettuce on a piece of toast, top with the egg salad mixture, and finish by creating a sandwich with a second piece of toast.
