Stuffed eggs like at home Welcome to the world of delicate stuffed eggs, a recipe that takes us back to Saturday days spent with family, when tables were filled with simple yet flavorful delights. Stuffed eggs with liver represent a perfect combination of accessible ingredients that, through careful preparation, transform an ordinary dish into a feast of flavors. This recipe is simple but can easily be adapted according to the season or preferences, giving us creative freedom in the kitchen. Preparation time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 15 minutes Total time: 35 minutes Number of servings: 4 Ingredients: - 8 hard-boiled eggs - 1 small container of chicken liver - 1 large onion - 3-4 garlic cloves - Spices: salt, pepper, paprika (optional, spices for chicken) - 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise - 2-3 tablespoons of sour cream or yogurt - Greens: preferably fresh parsley - A little olive oil (or oil of choice) - Pickles (for serving) Step-by-step preparation: 1. Boil the eggs: Place the eggs in a pot, add cold water until they are completely covered, and boil them over medium heat. Once the water starts to boil, let them boil for 10-12 minutes to get hard-boiled eggs. After boiling, immediately transfer them to cold water to cool quickly. This step is essential to make the shell easier to peel. 2. Peel the eggs: When the eggs are completely cold, carefully peel them. Cut them in half lengthwise and scoop out the yolks with a teaspoon, being careful not to damage the whites. 3. Prepare the filling: In a pan, add a little olive oil and sauté the finely chopped onion along with the crushed garlic. This mixture will give a special flavor to the composition. Sauté over low heat until they become translucent, then add the livers. Season with salt, pepper, and, if desired, a little paprika. 4. Cook the livers: Let the livers simmer under a lid over low heat for 5-7 minutes. Make sure to stir them occasionally for even cooking. If needed, you can add a little water to prevent them from burning. 5. Mix the filling: When the livers are ready, let them cool slightly, then chop them finely. In a bowl, mix the yolks with the livers, onion, and sautéed garlic, add the chopped parsley, and the juice left from the onion. Mix well with a wooden spoon until you get a smooth paste. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your preference. 6. Fill the eggs: Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill each half of the egg with the obtained mixture. Be careful to fill them generously, but without letting them overflow. 7. Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the sour cream or yogurt. This sauce will add a creamy note and balance the flavors. Carefully pour it over the stuffed eggs. 8. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle chopped parsley on top for an extra splash of color and freshness. Serve the stuffed eggs cold, alongside pickles, which will add a pleasant contrast of textures. Useful tips: - If you want a more intense flavor, you can add a tablespoon of mustard to the mayonnaise mixture. - A delicious variant is to use finely chopped green or black olives in the filling. - If you prefer a vegetarian option, you can replace the livers with sautéed mushrooms.
