Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Chopped fresh cilantro or green onions, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 12 minutes.
  2. Step 2: While the eggs cook, fill a large bowl with ice water to prepare an ice bath.
  3. Step 3: Transfer the cooked eggs to the ice bath and let them cool for about 5 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Gently tap each egg on a hard surface and roll to crack the shell. Peel the eggs under cold running water for easier removal.
  5. Step 5: Slice the peeled eggs lengthwise and scoop out the yolks into a bowl. Mash yolks with a fork, then mix in mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chili garlic sauce, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper until creamy and smooth.
  6. Step 6: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg whites for a neat presentation.
  7. Step 7: Drizzle with sriracha if desired, garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions, and serve immediately.

Tips & Variations

  • Substitute mayonnaise with mashed avocado for a healthier, creamier texture.
  • Adjust the amount of chili garlic sauce or sriracha to control the heat level.
  • Try different hot sauces to customize the flavor to your liking.
  • Serve chilled for the best taste and texture.

Storage

Store leftover deviled eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, it’s best to enjoy them chilled or at room temperature—avoid microwaving as it can affect texture and flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

Eggs

  • 6 large eggs

Filling

  • 3 tablespoons mayonnaise (or Greek yogurt as a lighter alternative)
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional, for extra heat)
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Garnish

  • Chopped fresh cilantro or green onions

Instructions

  1. Boil the Eggs: Place 6 large eggs in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring the water to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and cover the pan, allowing the eggs to cook for 12 minutes to achieve perfectly hard-boiled eggs.
  2. Prepare an Ice Bath: While the eggs cook, fill a large bowl with ice water. This ice bath will stop the cooking process immediately and help make peeling easier.
  3. Cool the Eggs: Transfer the cooked eggs to the ice bath using a slotted spoon. Let them sit for about 5 minutes to cool completely, ensuring they’re easier to handle and peel.
  4. Peel the Eggs: Gently tap each cooled egg on a hard surface and roll it between your hands to crack the shell. Peel the shells off under cold running water for an easier removal process.
  5. Make the Filling: Slice the peeled eggs in half lengthwise and carefully scoop the yolks into a mixing bowl. Mash the yolks with a fork, then add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chili garlic sauce, rice vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix the ingredients until creamy and thoroughly combined.
  6. Pipe the Filling: Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the egg white halves to create a neat and attractive presentation. Using a piping bag is recommended for a more elegant look.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Drizzle sriracha over each deviled egg if desired, then sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro or green onions. Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, bold flavors with a spicy kick.

Notes

  • Substitute mayonnaise with avocado for a healthier, creamier texture.
  • Adjust chili garlic sauce and sriracha quantities to control the heat level.
  • Peeling eggs under running water reduces shell breakage and makes peeling easier.
  • Use a piping bag with a star tip for aesthetically pleasing filling presentation.
  • These deviled eggs are best served immediately but can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
