A Family Favourite :)

DEVILLED EGGS


This is one of my grandmother's most famous recipes. My grandmother always used to make this dish on special occasions and this was one of the very first dishes I learnt from my grandma :)  This recipe is a meat-less version of scotch eggs. One morning, we were bored with our regular breakfast items so I decided to try and make them my way. My version here is a tasty yet easy-to-make snack :) :)

INGREDIENTS:

  • 3 boiled eggs + 1 raw egg beaten
  • 6-7 boiled potatoes (medium size)
  • Red chilli powder to taste
  • Salt to taste
  • Chat Masala to taste
  • 2 tsp lemon juice
  • Finely chopped green chillis
  • 5 Tbsp Cornflour
  • 7-8 Tbsp bread crumbs
  • Oil for deep frying

PROCEDURE:

  • Mash the potatoes and add the chat masala, chilli powder, lemon juice, salt and the chopped chillis.


  • Now take a handful of potato mash to cover the egg entirely with the mash.
The egg half covered with the mash (pic with flash)

  • Follow this step with all the eggs.

All the eggs covered with potato mash (pic without flash)
  • Now dust these eggs in cornflour (you can use flour as well) and then dip them in the beaten egg and then roll them in bread crumbs.


  • Now deep fry them till the crust is golden brown. (you can chill them for sometime as well before frying)

I hope you try this recipe out and give me feedback :) :)

THANKS :)

  1. Also as a variation of the same recipe, we can use soya granules boiled and mixed with the mashed potato to give it a twist. However, devilled eggs will remain our all time favorite roadside snack :)
