Lazy Deviled Egg Salad Recipe
Description
Lazy Deviled Egg Salad Recipe begins with air-fried eggs cooked at a low temperature until firm but tender. The eggs are peeled and chopped roughly to maintain some texture rather than making a smooth paste. The salad dressing combines mayonnaise and Dijon mustard with a touch of dill pickle juice, which adds brightness and a mild vinegar note. Salt and fresh black pepper season the mixture, and a dusting of paprika adds mild smoky warmth. Fresh dill or chives provide a herbaceous garnish that complements the tangy dressing. This egg salad works well spooned onto crunchy bread or crackers, making it a versatile lunch or snack option.
Ingredients
- 8 large egg
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (or more to taste)
- 1 teaspoon dill pickle juice
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- black pepper to taste, fresh
- paprika ( for garnish)
- dill or chives, for garnish, fresh
- Bacon chopped dill pickles, cornichons, etc, minced, optional toppings or add ins
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 250F. Add the eggs and cook 15 to 16 minutes. Then run them under cold water to stop the eggs from cooking. (NOTE: See my stovetop hard-boiled eggs if you don't have an air fryer).
- Peel the eggs and chop them then transfer to a medium-sized bowl.
- Add the mayo, Dijon, pickle juice, salt, pepper then mix. Serve on sour dough bread, toast or rice crackers and sprinkle with paprika, garnish with dill and serve.
