Ingredients you need:

- 6 boiled eggs
- 200 g liver pâté
- 2-3 tablespoons of mayonnaise
- 1 bunch of fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt, to taste

Let’s begin the culinary adventure!

Step 1: Preparing the eggs
Start by boiling the eggs. Place them in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat. Once the water starts to boil, let the eggs boil for 9-12 minutes, depending on how well-cooked you prefer the yolks. After the time is up, immediately transfer the eggs to a bowl of cold water to stop the cooking process. Let them cool for 5-10 minutes.

Step 2: Removing the yolks
After the eggs have cooled, carefully peel them. Cut each egg in half lengthwise and gently remove the yolks. These will be the base of our delicious filling.

Step 3: Preparing the filling
In a bowl, add the removed yolks, liver pâté, mayonnaise, and chopped parsley. Here you can add salt to taste. Use a fork or a hand mixer to mix the ingredients until you get a smooth and homogeneous paste. Make sure all ingredients are well integrated.

Step 4: Filling the egg whites
Using a spoon or a piping bag, fill each egg white with the obtained paste. This is where you can let your imagination run wild! You can decorate each half egg with fresh parsley, thin slices of olives, or even peppercorns for a more sophisticated look.

Step 5: Preparing the platter
To give it an attractive appearance, spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on a plate. Carefully arrange the filled egg halves on the platter, being careful not to disturb the decoration.

Step 6: Serving
These stuffed eggs with liver pâté are usually served cold, making them a perfect appetizer for parties, festive meals, or even for a weekend brunch. They can be accompanied by a fresh green salad, as well as a refreshing drink, such as a tomato cocktail or a glass of dry white wine.

Tips and useful advice:
- If you’re not a big fan of liver pâté, you can try replacing it with a vegetarian option, such as olive or vegetable pâté.
- Make sure the mayonnaise is of good quality, as it will influence the final taste of the dish.
- Adding spices like pepper or paprika can enhance the flavor of the filling.
- Instead of parsley, you can experiment with other herbs, such as dill or chives, for a different note.

Nutritional benefits:
Eggs are an excellent source of quality protein, vitamins (especially B12), and essential minerals. Liver pâté is rich in iron and vitamins A and D, contributing to maintaining health. By consuming these stuffed eggs, you enjoy a balanced meal full of nutrients.

Frequently asked questions:
1. Can I use quail eggs instead of chicken eggs?
Yes, quail eggs are an excellent alternative, but be sure to adjust the boiling time, as they cook faster.

2. How can I store the stuffed eggs?
If you have leftover stuffed eggs, you can store them in the refrigerator, covered with plastic wrap, for 2-3 days.

3. What other ingredients can I add for extra flavor?
You can add chopped green onions, crushed garlic, or even a tablespoon of mustard to enhance the flavor.
