Ingredients
- 6 boiled eggs
- 2 tbsp (tablespoons) mayonnaise
- 2 tsp (teaspoons) yellow mustard
- Pinch kosher salt
- 1 carrot, julienne
- 12 black peppercorns
Method
Step 1
Lay an egg on its side. Cut a small slice off of the flatter end. This will form the base of the chick.
Step 2
Then cut about 3/4 inch off of the pointed end. This will be the top of your chick.
Step 3
Scoop all the yolks out of the eggs and mix them with the mayo, mustard and salt.
Step 4
Put this filling in a plastic bag and pipe it into your eggs. Remember to snip off the end of the plastic bag. The filling should be at-least an inch taller than the egg white base, so you will be able to make a face comfortably.
Step 5
Place the top slice of egg white on each chick.
Step 6
Slice the julienne carrot into pieces 1/2 inch long, using a knife.
Step 7
Using tweezers, place 2 peppercorns in place of eyes and a piece of carrot as nose into the yolk of each egg to make the face.
Step 8
Arrange the eggs on your serving tray, then add feet under their bodies by slipping pieces of carrot as in the image. Place 3 pieces together on each side to make the feet.
Step 9
Serve cold. Best served within 2 hours.
