Ingredients
- 6 pieces Large eggs
- 100 grams Smoked salmon
- 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh dill (chopped)
- 2 stalks Green onions (thinly sliced)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Capers (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and allow the eggs to simmer for 9-10 minutes.
Step 2
Drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool for 5 minutes. Once cooled, peel the eggs and chop them into small chunks.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped eggs, smoked salmon (torn into small pieces), mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice.
Step 4
Add the chopped fresh dill, sliced green onions, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. If using capers, mix them in as well.
Step 5
Gently stir all the ingredients together until well combined, but be careful not to overly mash the eggs.
Step 6
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more salt or lemon juice if desired.
Step 7
Serve immediately or cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld. Serve on bread, crackers, or over a bed of mixed greens.
