These were inspired by me looking for a way to get lower fat deviled eggs without sacrificing any flavor. Ajvar (a european red pepper spread) is usually found in the imported section of your market, or by the roasted red peppers. I also find it at European markets and sometimes Hispanic markets. The ajvar makes the filling of the eggs a beautiful orange color, which lends itself well to fall entertaining. I am thinking of making blood-shot deviled egg eyes for my Halloween party using black olives slices as garnish. Start with the recommended amounts of Ajvar and mayonnaise, and adjust to your desired juiciness . I have used leftover aioli for the mayonnaise and it was just wonderful, and also added grated onion. Feel free to play, this is a wonderful base to build from.
Ingredients:
6 large eggs, hard cooked
3 tablespoons ajvar (hot or mild)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
kosher salt
Directions:
1. Half eggs, and scoop yolks out to a bowl.
2. Arrange egg white halves on serving platter.
3. Smash yolks REALLY well with a fork.
4. Add ajvar and mayonnaise.
5. Blend well with an electric mixer until fluffy.
6. Season to taste with kosher salt.
7. With a teaspoon, fill egg white halves with ajvar-yolk mixture.
8. Garnish as desired.
