Ingredients

  • 6 eggs large, room temperature
  • ¼ cup celery finely diced, 1 stalk, 40g
  • 2 tablespoon spring onion / scallion finely diced, 10g
  • cup mayonnaise 80g
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard 5g
  • ½ tablespoon lemon juice fresh, 6g
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Bring a pot with water to the boil. Turn the heat down to a simmer and lower the eggs into the water with a spoon. Cook for 9 minutes. Then, put the eggs into a bowl with very cold water to stop them from cooking. Peel under running cold water.
  • Chop the eggs into small pieces. I like to also mash them with a fork to make them even smaller.
  • Chop the celery and the spring onions very finely. Slice the celery ribs lengthways several times before chopping.
  • Stir the lemon juice and mustard into the mayonnaise in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add the chopped vegetables and the fully cooled egg and fold everything together.
