Curried egg sandwiches combine the savory taste of eggs with the exotic flavor of curry, all nestled between nutritious whole-wheat bread slices. This easy-to-make recipe is perfect for a quick lunch or a nutritious snack.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Place the 4 eggs in a pot and cover them with cold water.
- Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once the water reaches a rolling boil, cover the pot with a lid and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10-12 minutes.
- After the eggs have cooked, drain the hot water and transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water. Let them cool for a few minutes.
- Once cooled, gently tap each egg on a hard surface to crack the shell. Peel the eggs and discard the shells.
- Roughly chop the peeled eggs and place them in a medium mixing bowl.
- Add the 1/2 cup mayonnaise salad dressing to the chopped eggs.
- Sprinkle the 1 tsp curry powder, 1 dash of salt, and 1 dash of black pepper into the bowl.
- Stir the mixture until all the ingredients are well combined and the eggs are evenly coated with the mayonnaise and seasonings.
- Lay out the 8 slices of whole-wheat bread on a clean surface.
- Evenly distribute the curried egg mixture onto 4 of the bread slices, spreading it out to cover the entire surface.
- Top each of these slices with another piece of whole-wheat bread, gently pressing down to form a sandwich.
- For easier eating, cut each sandwich in half diagonally or into quarters.
- Serve the sandwiches immediately or wrap them in plastic wrap and refrigerate if serving later.
Tips:
- Use fresh eggs for the best taste and texture in your sandwiches.
- Adjust the amount of curry powder to match your preferred level of spiciness.
- Toast the whole-wheat bread slices lightly for a bit of extra crunch.
- Add some chopped green onions or celery for additional flavors and texture.
- For a healthier option, use a low-fat mayonnaise salad dressing.
