Spiced Boiled Eggs with Cheese Topping 🍳
Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- Chili powder, to taste
- Ground black pepper, to taste
- Grated cheese, to taste
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Eggs: Begin by piercing the top of each egg with a pin or needle, taking care not to puncture the yolk. This step helps make peeling the eggs easier once they are cooked. If you prefer, you can skip this step and proceed directly to boiling.
-
Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a gentle boil over medium-low heat. Let the eggs simmer for about 8 to 10 minutes. Avoid overcooking, as this can cause a greenish-blue ring to form around the yolk, which is a sign of overcooking.
-
Cool and Peel: Once the eggs are cooked, remove them from the boiling water and let them cool slightly. Peel the eggs and cut them in half.
-
Season and Top: Sprinkle the eggs with ground black pepper and chili powder according to your taste. Add a generous amount of grated cheese on top of each egg half.
-
Serve: Enjoy your spiced boiled eggs as a satisfying breakfast, ideally paired with a cup of unsweetened green tea.
Feel free to adjust the seasoning and cheese quantities based on your preferences. This simple yet flavorful dish is perfect for a quick and nutritious start to your day. 😊😋
