About the dish

Stuffed eggs were a regular among the cold intermediate dishes and small dishes in Erken's cookbook. Here they are turned into a small salad dish with tomato.

How to make it

  1. 1

    Prepare the eggs

    Halve the hard-boiled eggs lengthwise and remove the yolks. Cut a thin slice from the underside of each white so that they sit steadily on the tomato slices.

  2. 2

    Make the filling

    Press the yolks through a fine sieve. Mix with finely chopped cucumber, cleaned and finely cut anchovy, and a little mayonnaise.

  3. 3

    Fill and serve

    Fill the whites with a small mound of filling. Place a rolled anchovy fillet on each egg. Arrange the eggs on the tomatoes, with or on lettuce, and serve more mayonnaise alongside.
