Egg & Onion Salad

 

 

Ingredients:

3 Hard-boiled eggs

½ onion

Basil – lightly dried

Chilli powder – 1/8 tsp

Pepper

Salt

2 tblsp mustard oil

 

Method:

While your eggs are boiling, slice the onion as thinly as you can – not very in my case.

 

Put into a container along with the basil, chili powder, salt and pepper.

 

I had to make my own mustard oil by crushing some yellow mustard seeds in a pestle and then mixing them with canola oil and putting it on the heat for say 10 minutes.  I then poured the oil into a jar stopping just before the seeds so the oil was clear.

 

Pour the mustard oil over the onion etc.

 

Peel your eggs and quarter each one.  Put into a serving dish and put the onion and oil mixture on top. I did this while the eggs were still a bit warm

 

Serve chilled as a side dish.
