Coronation Egg Mayo Sandwiches Recipes

CORONATION EGG MAYO SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Bring a pan of water to the boil, add the eggs and simmer for 8 mins, then drain and cool under cold running water. Peel and chop the eggs, then tip into a bowl and mix with the mayo, yogurt, chutney, curry paste, spring onions and coriander. Season to taste. Butter the bread and spoon the egg mixture over two slices. Complete the sandwiches with the remaining bread, then halve.

CAJUN EGG SANDWICH

Steps:

• Whisk mayonnaise and Cajun seasoning together in a small bowl until smooth. Spread over both slices of toasted bread.
• Place andouille sausage in a skillet, cut-side down. Cook over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Flip and cook for 2 minutes more. Transfer andouille to one slice of bread, leaving a small space in between the halves as a "raft" to hold the egg in place.
• Heat oil in the same skillet for 1 minute over medium heat. Crack egg into the skillet and let cook undisturbed for 3 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook for 2 minutes more. Place fried egg on top of the andouille and cover with the second slice of bread.

CORONATION EGG SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Chop eggs and set aside. Heat oil in small saucepan and add onion and garlic with a good pinch of salt. Cover and cook until the onion is very tender. Add curry powder and cook 2 mins, stirring constantly. Add wine or stock and cook 8 mins or until the wine has evaporated and the mixture is very thick. Stir in the mango chutney. Cool. Transfer to a food processor and process until smooth. Tip into a bowl and stir in the mayonnaise and coriander. Season. Place chopped eggs in separate bowl and gently stir in just enough mayonnaise to bind the eggs stogether. Assembly: Butter one side of each slice of bread and cut into half to form triangles. Spread one triangle with egg mayonnaise and top with a layer of sprouts. Don't take the mayonnaise to the edges of the bread. Sandwich with the remaining triangle and press edges to seal. Repeat with remaining bread.

EGG MAYO

Steps:

• Prepare the hard-boiled eggs: Put the eggs in a small saucepan and cover with 1 inch of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat so that the water is at a strong simmer and cook, uncovered, for 7 minutes. Drain the eggs into a colander, and run them under cold water.
• Return the eggs to the empty pan, shake the pan vigorously to crack the shells, then peel the eggs under cold running water. Rinse them and keep them covered in the refrigerator until needed. (They should be used the same day.)
• Prepare the mayonnaise: Put the egg, lemon juice, mustard, vinegar and salt in the container of a blender; pulse to mix. With the machine running on high speed if your blender has two or three speeds, or on medium to medium-high if your blender has more speeds, slowly and steadily pour in the oil, stopping halfway through to scrape down the sides of the container. Every blender is different, so it's hard to say how long it will take for the oil to be incorporated and the mayo to set. Taste and see if you want to add more lemon juice, mustard, vinegar or salt. Scrape into a clean container, cover and refrigerate until needed. (The mayo will keep for up to 4 days.)
• To assemble the dish, you'll need about half the mayonnaise to cover the 4 hard-boiled eggs. You want the mayo to be thin enough to just coat the eggs - it should come off the spoon in quickly dissolving ribbons - so, if needed, thin it with a little hot water. (You might need 3 to 4 teaspoons; check as you go.) Taste, and see if you want more salt and some pepper.
• Cut the eggs in half lengthwise and place them on a platter, yolk side down or up. Spoon the mayonnaise on top, coating the egg and allowing some to slip over the sides. Garnish the eggs as you like. Serve with bread, of course.

CORONATION CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a large pot, cook chicken in lightly salted boiling water for 20 minutes. Drain, cool, and cut into 1/2-inch strips.
• In a large bowl, stir together chicken strips, raisins, and half of the mango.
• In a medium bowl, mix together mayonnaise, curry powder, chutney, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper, then toss gently with chicken mixture. Stir in half the nuts. Transfer to a platter, and garnish with remaining mango strips and cashews.
