Ingredients
-
12 hard-boiled large eggs
-
1/4 cup mayonnaise
-
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
-
1 teaspoon minced chives
-
1/4 teaspoon salt
-
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
-
1/8 teaspoon sugar
-
1 cup all-purpose flour
-
3 large eggs, beaten
-
1-1/2 cups Italian-style panko bread crumbs
-
Oil for deep-fat frying
Directions
-
1.
Cut eggs lengthwise in half. Remove yolks, reserving whites. In a small bowl, mash yolks. Stir in mayo, Dijon, chives, salt, pepper, and sugar. Spoon or pipe into egg whites. Level filling; cover and freeze eggs on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet until firm, about 30 minutes.
-
2.
In a shallow bowl, whisk eggs. Place flour and panko in separate shallow bowls. Dip eggs in flour to coat both sides; shake off excess. Dip in egg mixture, then in panko, patting to help coating adhere.
-
3.
In an electric skillet or deep fryer, heat oil to 350°. Fry eggs, a few at a time, until golden brown, 2-3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. If desired, garnish with additional minced chives.
