Egg delight: Simple yet satisfying snack with a retro twist

All it takes is a few eggs, a bit of mayonnaise, and one typical salad ingredient to serve a delicacy that everyone will enjoy. Grandmothers know what's good and don't need fancy additions to prepare a dish that everyone will reach for.

This is one of the simplest options when you need to prepare something for guests. My grandmother was a master of easy snacks, and eggs in mayonnaise sauce with peas were her specialty, especially when the plate was garnished with dill from her own garden.

In the "quick and easy" category, eggs in mayonnaise sauce with peas take the lead. Just cut a few eggs and drizzle them with a generous amount of mayonnaise sauce, and guests at the table will be delighted. It's something everyone knows, enjoys, and will eagerly come back for seconds.

The key to success here, besides preparing a tasty sauce, is boiling the eggs so that they don't have a grayish ring. This often appears when the eggs have spent too much time in hot water. Make sure not to boil them for more than 10 minutes.

Ingredients:

• 5 eggs
• 1 can of canned peas
• about 5 ounces of mayonnaise
• salt, coarsely ground pepper

Preparation:

1. Boil the eggs until they are hard-boiled, then peel them.
2. Make the sauce from peas, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper.
3. Spread the prepared sauce evenly on a platter.
4. Place quartered eggs on the sauce.
5. You can sprinkle it with dill and serve with pieces of radish, tomato, cucumber, or lettuce leaves.
