Toppings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Boil the Eggs

    Place 6 large eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil, then cover and remove from heat. Let sit for 12 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath to cool.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Filling

    Once the eggs are cool, peel them and cut in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a bowl. Mash the yolks with 1 ripe avocado, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 0.5 teaspoon salt until smooth.

  3. 3

    Crispy Prosciutto

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook 4 slices of prosciutto until crispy. Remove from the heat and let cool, then crumble into small pieces.

  4. 4

    Mix in the Prosciutto

    Fold the crumbled prosciutto into the avocado-yolk mixture until evenly combined.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Fill the Egg Whites

    Spoon or pipe the avocado-yolk filling into the hollowed egg whites until heaped.

  2. 6

    Add Toppings

    Top each filled egg with a spoonful of chow chow. Dice 4 cherry tomatoes and 2 radishes, and sprinkle over the deviled eggs.

  3. 7

    Garnish

    Finish with a sprinkle of fresh chives for an added touch of flavor and color.
