CURRIED EGG SALAD



Curried Egg Salad image

Here is a recipe our colleague Jeff Gordinier got from the New York chef Jesse Schenker in the process of writing an article about Mr. Schenker's efforts to lose weight. It is for a much lighter version of the egg salad you may ordinarily make, with Greek yogurt standing in for mayonnaise and a number of egg yolks held back from the finished dish. But it is important to note that you don't have to do that. You can make this dish with all the yolks if you like, and pile the result into the midst of a green salad or on top of a roll, and you'll have a fine meal indeed.

4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled
1 teaspoon plain 2-percent-fat Greek yogurt

1/2 teaspoon sriracha, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon sherry vinegar, or to taste
1/3 teaspoon curry powder, or to taste
Kosher salt

CURRIED RICE & EGG SALAD



Curried rice & egg salad image

Enjoy this lightly spiced rice and egg salad as a side dish at a summer barbecue or picnic. Top with toasted almonds, grated carrots and sliced cucumbers

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Side dish

Time 37m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tbsp olive or rapeseed oil
1 onion , chopped
2 tbsp mild curry paste (we used korma paste)
1 tsp ground turmeric
300g basmati rice
50g raisins
1 chicken or vegetable stock cube
3 eggs
small bunch of coriander , leaves picked
30g flaked almonds , toasted
2 carrots , grated or finely shredded
½ cucumber , sliced

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion for 8-10 mins until soft and just turning golden. Boil the kettle. Stir the curry paste, ground turmeric, rice and raisins into the onions. Crumble over the stock cube and pour over enough boiled water from the kettle to cover the rice by ½cm (about 1 litre). Season with some salt. Bring to a gentle simmer, then cover the pan, reduce the heat to its lowest setting and cook for 2 mins more. Without taking off the lid, remove from the heat and leave to steam for 15 mins. This will give you perfect, fluffy rice.
  • Meanwhile, bring another pan of water to the boil and cook the eggs for 7 mins. Plunge into a bowl of cold water to stop them cooking and once cool, drain and halve.
  • Tip the rice into a container and chill for at least 1 hr, or up to two days. When you're ready to serve, scatter over the coriander and almonds, and top with the grated carrot, cucumber slices and eggs.

CURRIED EGG SALAD



Curried Egg Salad image

I was looking around for a curried egg salad recipe and couldn't find one that I liked...so I made my own! The addition of the sriracha sauce and green onion gives it a distinctly "ethnic" flavor and is a nice variation from your typical, boring egg salad. This is my new favorite recipe! Would be delicious made into little sliders for a brunch. I rarely/never measure, so this is my best estimation of amounts.

Provided by Teresa in CO

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 eggs
1/4 cup light mayonnaise (I always use reduced fat or olive oil mayo, NO miracle whip!)
1 teaspoon green curry paste
1 tablespoon mustard (dijon or brown)
1/2 teaspoon sriracha sauce (or more, if you like it spicier)
2 green onions, finely sliced

Steps:

  • Boil and peel eggs. Slice, chop, or mash up the eggs- however you like it.
  • Mix all ingredients together and chill in the fridge until you're ready to eat.
  • Serve on lightly toasted bread with the usual sandwich accoutrements (lettuce, tomato).

CURRIED EGG SALAD ON GREENS



Curried Egg Salad on Greens image

Provided by CarolAT

Categories     < 30 Mins

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 large eggs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, diced
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
1 lemon
1/4 cup light mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
2 stalks celery, sliced
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh parsley leaves, chopped
1 (5 -6 ounce) bag mixed baby greens
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted and chopped (I use pecans too)

Steps:

  • Hard cook eggs: Place eggs in 3-quart saucepan with enough water to cover by 1 inch. Heat water, just to boiling, on high; remove from heat. Cover saucepan and let eggs stand 15 minutes.
  • While eggs are cooking, in 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil on medium 1 minute. Add onion and cook about 20 minutes or until very tender and golden-brown, stirring occasionally. Stir in peas, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper; cook 3 minutes longer, until peas are cooked. Remove skillet from heat.
  • When eggs are done, carefully pour off water and cool eggs in same pan in cold water, changing water occasionally, until eggs are easy to handle, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, from lemon, grate 1 teaspoon peel and squeeze 2 tablespoons juice. In large bowl, stir lemon peel and juice with mayonnaise and curry powder.
  • Remove shells from hard-cooked eggs. Coarsely chop eggs and place in large bowl.
  • To bowl with eggs, add onion mixture, mayonnaise mixture, celery, and parsley; stir gently with rubber spatula to combine. If you like, cover and refrigerate egg salad 1 hour or until chilled.
  • To serve, place greens on 4 dinner plates; top with egg salad and sprinkle with chopped walnuts.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality mayonnaise and fresh herbs.
  • If you don't have celery on hand, you can use diced cucumber or bell pepper instead.
  • To make the egg salad even more flavorful, add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard or a dash of hot sauce.
  • If you're making the egg salad ahead of time, be sure to store it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving, so the flavors have time to meld.
  • Serve the egg salad on a bed of lettuce or arugula, or use it as a sandwich filling.

Conclusion:

Curried olive egg salad is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this curried olive egg salad a try!
