Ingredients
- Egg6
- Cottage cheese⅔ cups
- Dijon mustard1 tsp
- Chive2 tbsp
- Salt
- Black pepper
Instructions
- Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water by about 1 inch (2–3 cm). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, cover the pan, take it off the heat and leave the eggs for 10–11 minutes.
- Move the eggs straight into an ice bath and cool them for at least 5 minutes.
- Peel the eggs and roughly chop into bite-sized pieces, or grate them on the large holes of a box grater for a finer texture.
- Put the eggs in a bowl. Add the cottage cheese, Dijon mustard, chives, salt and black pepper, and stir until well combined.
- Optional: blend the cottage cheese for 20–30 seconds before mixing for a smoother, creamier result.
- Serve straight away, or refrigerate for 20–30 minutes so the flavours meld.
