HUEVOS DIABLO {DEVIL EGGS}

Steps:
- Cut hard boiled eggs in half horizontally. Place yolks in a large in a small chopper or blender (note: the batch is too small for a food processor but I wanted to blend it in the same way a food processor would). Add all the other ingredients except the smoked salt and pepper (and garnish). Pulse until the mixture is fully mixed and smooth. Add the smoked salt (only a tiny bit is needed; it can become overpowering quickly) and pepper.
- Spoon or pipe (with a pastry bag and star tip) into the egg white halves. Gently sprinkle with smoked paprika and sprinkle with diced scallions. Best served at room temperature. May be stored completely sealed in the refrigerator for a few days. Do not allow to sit out at hot temperatures due to the mayonnaise.

HUEVOS EL DIABLO OR THE DEVILS EGGS
Steps:
- Remove the casing from the sausage and place in a frying pan with a tablespoon of oil. Break up the sausage the same way you would ground beef. Brown the sausage but do not fully cook, remove from pan and drain on a paper towel.
- Add the diced onion and diced, seeded chiles to the pan. Cook and stir the chile mixture until it softens and begins to brown. Mince 4 of the cloves of garlic and add to the chile mixture. Add a pinch of cumin. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the diced tomatoes. Slightly smash the tomatoes with the back of a wooden spoon to release some of the moisture and bring the mixture to a boil. Immediately reduce the temperature to just under a boil.
- Make 4 to 6 indentations in the tomato sauce for the eggs. Crack the eggs one at a time onto a plate and it into an indentation in the tomato sauce. Repeat with all of the eggs. Cover the frying pan with a lid or aluminum foil. Let the eggs steam and "poach" until the white is set and the yolks are very runny. There will be a slight white film over the yolk. About 3 to 4 minutes. Watch them carefully. Do not over cook the eggs. The eggs will continue to cook when removed from the heat and sitting in the warm sauce.

Tips:
- For a classic deviled egg, use hard-boiled eggs that are fresh and have been properly cooked. Overcooked eggs will have a green ring around the yolk, which is a sign of overcooking.
- Use high-quality mayonnaise for the filling. A good mayonnaise will have a smooth, creamy texture and a rich, tangy flavor.
- Add your favorite herbs and spices to the filling for a unique flavor. Some popular additions include paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper.
- Garnish the deviled eggs with a sprinkle of paprika, chopped chives, or bacon bits.
- For a healthier version of deviled eggs, use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
- If you're making deviled eggs ahead of time, cover them tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate them for up to 3 days.
