Time 30m

Yield 24 1/2 eggs

Number Of Ingredients 8

12 eggs, large
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons red wine vinegar, more to taste
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon hot smoked paprika, more to taste and for garnish

Steps:

  • Place eggs in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a full boil, let cook for 1 minute, then turn off heat and cover pan. Allow eggs to stand for at least 15 minutes.
  • Once eggs are cool enough to handle, peel and cut in half lengthwise. Scoop yolks into a bowl; place whites on a serving platter.
  • Using a sharp knife or mortar and pestle, chop or smash garlic with salt to make a paste. Add paste to yolks and mash together with a fork. Add mayonnaise, tomato paste, red wine vinegar, pepper and paprika and continue to mash until mixture is smooth. Taste and add more vinegar, salt and paprika if desired.
  • Spoon yolk mixture into whites and dust with paprika.
