Chefs are personalizing deviled eggs with fresh touches to attract new customers to this old favorite. The addition of mashed avocados to this recipe makes for a creamy texture and suprising flavor and color. Varying the garnishes further differentiates the preparation.
Ingredients
1 bunch parsley
1 cup olive oil
5 roasted red peppers
1/2 cup vegetable oil
20 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and split in half
2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
3 tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. chipotle powder
1/4 tsp. ground black pepper
Oven-crisped prosciutto, diced red pepper and seasoned crabmeat, for garnish
Steps
Prepare parsley oil: Blanch parsley for 10 sec.; shock in ice water and drain. Pat parsley thoroughly dry. Puree in blender while drizzling in olive oil.
Prepare red pepper coulis: Puree roasted peppers in food processor with vegetable oil. Pass through chinois, adding additional oil if necessary to achieve a smooth consistency.
