There’s a big snowstorm today and I didn’t want to go outside so I had to make due with what I have in the house. To my delight I had 2 hard boiled eggs so I made an egg salad with some mint chutney. SWAD brand chutneys are good and I like to have some on hand in my fridge for emergencies like this one!
Egg salad is one of my most favorite things to eat in the world. It’s so easy to make and a good recipe to build off of. This time I added some mint chutney, but I’m sure any type of spicey sauce will do.
I rolled the salad up in a tortilla that I had fried in olive oil – kind of like a kathi roll. My friend Busayo always fries up her tortillas like this and it is so much better than eating a cold tortilla or one that’s just heated in a pan.
Enjoy!

Method:
Mash up the hard-boiled eggs. Mix in the mayonnaise, green pepper, red pepper, lemon, mint chutney, cilantro, salt and pepper.
