You can always customize this recipe and add a little of Dijon mustard (start with ½ teaspoons first). If you do add it, please let me know how they’ll turn out below in the comments. Thank you!
For the recipe...
Start this recipe by boiling the eggs.
HOW TO BOIL THE EGGS FOR DEVILED EGGS
For this recipe, you’ll need hard-boiled eggs (which equals to 10-12 minutes cooking time).
Place eggs in the saucepan and add enough cold water to cover the eggs. Cook for 10-12 minutes (depending on the size of the eggs), remove from the heat, pour out the water and let stand until cooled down.
If you’re short on time you can fill the saucepan with cold water and add ice. Wait until they are cool enough to handle and remove the shells.
Next, slice the eggs in half lengthwise and carefully remove yolks.
Mash with a fork (or back of the spatula) and add mayo. Mash again until smooth. Add mashed avocado, relish, salt and pepper. Stir in chopped parsley.
Transfer the egg avocado mixture into a pastry piping bag or a zip lock bag. Refrigerate for 30 minutes (optional but I like when the egg mixture is a little bit chilled).
Pipe or spoon the egg mixture back into the egg whites.
Top with sriracha mayo, sprinkle with more chopped parsley and serve.
TIPS
- Make-ahead - you can boil the eggs 2 days in advance and keep them refrigerated until ready to use.If you don’t like mayo you can add more avocado to achieve smooth filling (+1).
- Instead of Sriracha mayo sprinkle a pinch of cayenne or chopped jalapenos on top.
- Don't like spicy? - no worries! Leave the Sriracha mayo out and sprinkle with a pinch of paprika (or even smoked paprika) or leave it as it is with chopped parsley on top.
- More topping ideas - crispy bacon bits are one of my favorites and also dried fennel.
- Substitute parsley with chives, green onions, or freshly chopped cilantro.
- Mustard - add 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
- Try another delicious alternative to spicy mayonnaise - Homemade Buffalo Sauce
