Cook the eggs and let them cool in cold water.

Carefully remove the egg yolks, mash the yolks and place in a bowl (put the cut egg whites aside).
Put aside some shrimps for decoration and finely chop the remaining ones, as well as the onion and a few sprigs of parsley.
Add everything into the bowl with the egg yolks and add the mayonnaise.
Season with salt and freshly ground pepper and mix everything well.
With a spoon, fill each half of egg whites with this paste and place them on a serving dish.
Garnish with the shrimps you put aside earlier and serve.

Recipe Tips

•

When boiling the eggs, add a pinch of salt to the water; this can help prevent the eggs from cracking and make them easier to peel once cooked.

•

For additional flavor, consider sautéing the chopped onion in a little olive oil before mixing it with the shrimp and mayonnaise; this will give the filling a sweeter, more caramelized taste.

•

Be cautious with the amount of mayonnaise; start with 2 tablespoons and gradually add more as needed to achieve your desired creaminess, as too much can overpower the delicate flavors of the shrimp and eggs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I substitute mayonnaise with a healthier option?

Yes, you can substitute mayonnaise with Greek yogurt or a light sour cream for a healthier alternative. Both will add creaminess to the filling while reducing calories.

How can I store leftover stuffed eggs?

Leftover stuffed eggs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. It's best to consume them within this timeframe to ensure freshness.

What can I do if my egg yolk mixture is too dry?

If your egg yolk mixture is too dry, you can add a little extra mayonnaise or a splash of lemon juice to moisten it. This will also enhance the flavor of the mixture.
