Curried Egg Salad Sandwich Recipe
Description
This recipe starts by boiling eggs until hard-cooked, then cooling them in ice water for easy peeling. The eggs are sliced and mashed, then mixed thoroughly with a mayonnaise blend enhanced with curry powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. This spice mix adds warmth and depth to the classic egg salad flavor.
The salad is served on toasted English muffin halves, optionally buttered, and topped with fresh watercress and radish sprouts. These greens add a peppery, crisp contrast to the creamy salad, creating balance in texture and freshness.
The sandwich can be assembled with one or two slices of muffin, served open-faced or closed, depending on preference. This makes a satisfying lunch or light meal option, pairing well with simple sides or salads.
