Ingredients

For the Eggs:

For the Filling:

  • 3 Tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon fresh dill finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon white pepper
  • Paprika for garnish
  • Extra fresh dill for garnish

Instructions

  • Place the 6 large eggs in a pot and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the eggs and transfer them to an ice bath to cool completely.
  • Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Carefully scoop out the yolks and place them in a mixing bowl. Set the egg whites aside.
  • To prepare the filling, mash the yolks with a fork until smooth. Mix in the mayonnaise, fresh dill, Dijon mustard, salt, and white pepper until creamy. Cover and refrigerate the filling while you prepare the fried egg whites.
  • Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls: one with all-purpose flour, one with the beaten eggs, and one with a mixture of panko and regular breadcrumbs.
  • Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
  • Dredge each egg white half in the flour, then dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it in the breadcrumb mixture. Press gently to ensure an even coating.
  • Fry the breaded egg whites in batches, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • Once the egg whites have cooled slightly, pipe or spoon the prepared yolk filling into each fried egg white half.
  • Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika and extra fresh dill. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
