Ingredients
- 12 eggs
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf parsley, more for garnish
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped, rinsed capers
- 1/4 teaspoon anchovy paste
- Zest of 1 lemon
- Juice of 1/2 lemon
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Method
Arrange large eggs in a pot large enough to hold them all in a single layer.
Cover by 3 inches of cold water and place on the stovetop over high heat. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat, cover and set aside for 12 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water, stirring gently to cool them down.
Once cooled, pat eggs dry and then peel.
Slice eggs lengthwise. Remove yolks and place them in a medium bowl.
Arrange egg white halves on a serving plate.
To prepare the filling, add parsley, capers, anchovy paste, lemon zest and juice, mayonnaise, mustard, pepper and 2 tablespoons water to yolks and mash.
Scoop filling into egg white halves. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
