Ingredients

  • 2 egg
  • 25 g yellow onion
  • 2 gherkin small, pickled
  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise I recommend Kewpie, Japanese style
  • 1 tsp tomato ketchup
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper ground
  • ¼ tsp parsley dried

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil (enough to cover the eggs). Add 2 egg and set a timer for 10 minutes. While they're boiling, prepare a bowl of ice water.
  2. Once the timer is up, transfer the eggs to the ice water to halt the cooking process. Leave them to cool for 10 minutes, then peel and dry them with kitchen paper.
  3. Finely dice the eggs, 25 g yellow onion and 2 small pickled gherkin.
  4. Transfer them to a large mixing bowl and add 4 tbsp Japanese style mayonnaise, 1 tsp tomato ketchup, 1 tbsp lemon juice, 2 tsp sugar, 1 pinch salt, 1 pinch ground black pepper and ¼ tsp dried parsley.
  5. Mix thoroughly until all of the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  6. Transfer to a sterilized air-tight jar and store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  7. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If you want to soften the onion taste you can soak the onion in water after dicing. Just make sure to dry it well before adding it to your sauce.
  • Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for about 5 days.
