Category: Spreads
Keywords: Vegetable, Kosher, < 30 Mins, Easy
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe avocado
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
- 1 small onion
- Salt to taste
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Eggs: Begin by hard-boiling the eggs. Place them in a pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, cover the pot with a lid, remove from heat, and let the eggs sit in the hot water for 10-12 minutes. Afterward, cool the eggs under cold running water or in an ice bath, then peel and set aside.
-
Chop the Onion: Finely chop the onion. The finer the chop, the more seamlessly it will integrate into the spread, adding a subtle bite without overwhelming the other flavors.
-
Mash the Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the peeled hard-boiled eggs, finely chopped onion, and the ripe avocado. Season with salt to taste. Use a fork or a kitchen machine to mash and blend the ingredients together until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency.
-
Chill and Flavor: Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least a few hours. This resting time allows the flavors to meld and intensify, making the spread even more delicious.
-
Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish the Avocado Appetizer with a light sprinkle of paprika for an extra touch of flavor and color. Serve it on fresh salad leaves or alongside your favorite Challah slices.
