Ingredients
  

Egg Salad Base
  • 4 large eggs boiled until fully cooked and tender
  • 1 ripe avocado mashed until smooth
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise adds creaminess
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice to prevent browning and add flavor
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper to taste, optional

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by boiling the eggs in a pot of water for about 10-12 minutes. Once cooked, transfer them to an ice bath to cool quickly, which also helps in peeling them easily. The eggs should be firm yet tender.
  2. While the eggs are cooling, cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until completely smooth.
  3. Once the eggs are cool, peel them and chop them finely. Alternatively, you can mash them for a softer texture.
  4. Add the chopped eggs to the mashed avocado, along with mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Gently mix until combined, ensuring the mixture remains creamy and smooth.
  5. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for a short while to enhance the flavors.

Notes

Texture Tips: To achieve the creamiest texture, ensure the avocados are fully ripe and soft to the touch. If you desire an even softer consistency, blend the entire mixture until smooth. For those who may need a smoother option, consider pureeing the salad in a food processor.
This salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, but it’s best enjoyed fresh. The texture should be creamy and spreadable, easily taken with a spoon.
