Method

  1. Place eggs1 in cold water, bring to a boil, and cook for 10 minutes.

  2. Cool eggs1 in cold water, peel, and slice lengthwise in half.

  3. Remove yolks, mash them with mayonnaise, grated cheese, salt, and pepper.

  4. Fill the egg whites with the cheese mixture using a spoon or a piping bag with a small corner cut off.

  5. Top with red4 caviar and sprinkle with chopped dill5.

Tips

Why it works
Boil the eggs for exactly 10 minutes so the whites stay firm and don't fall apart when cut. If you overcook them, the whites turn rubbery.
Substitutions
Replace the 10 g of red caviar with 10 g of red fish pâté or 15 g of canned salmon. You can skip the mayonnaise and add 10 g of sour cream to the filling.
Common mistakes
If the filling runs out of the eggs, the yolks weren't mashed enough with the cheese or the salt hasn't dissolved. Check the consistency before filling.
Storing and reheating
Keep in the fridge for 2 days, covered with cling film. Reheat in the microwave for 20 seconds, covering the plate. Don't freeze.
Serve with
Serve with thin slices of cucumber and bread at the festive table or as a starter with champagne.
