Fried Deviled Eggs Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Eggs

   Place the eggs in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and let sit for 12 minutes. Cool the eggs in ice water, then peel.

2. 2

   Make the Filling

   Cut the peeled eggs in half and remove the yolks. In a bowl, mash the yolks with mayonnaise, mustard, salt, pepper, and paprika until smooth. Spoon the mixture back into the egg whites.

3. 3

   Coat the Eggs

   Set up a breading station: one bowl with flour, another with beaten eggs, and a third with panko breadcrumbs. Dip each filled egg half first in flour, then in the beaten eggs, and finally in the panko breadcrumbs.

4. 4

   Fry the Eggs

   In a deep pan, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, fry the coated eggs in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

5. 5

   Serve

   Sprinkle with additional paprika if desired and serve warm as an appetizer.
