Cooking time: 1 hour

INGREDIENTS FOR THE AVOCADO MAYONNAISE

Ingredients (4 servings)
1 ripe avocado
2 tablespoon(s) lemon juice
2 tablespoon(s) olive oil or avocado oil
1/2 clove of garlic (optional)
1 pinch of salt
1 pinch of pepper

INGREDIENTS FOR THE RED ONION PICKLES

Ingredients (4 servings)
1 large red onion
100 ml apple cider vinegar
50 ml water
25 g sugar
1/2 tablespoon(s) salt
optional: spices such as peppercorns, bay leaves, mustard seeds or coriander seeds for extra flavor

INGREDIENTS FOR SERVING

Ingredients (4 servings)
4 eggs
1/2 bunch coriander
paprika powder, sweet
sea salt flakes
fresh red chili (optional)
  • Cut the avocado in half and remove the stone. Spoon the flesh into a bowl. Add the lemon juice, oil and grated garlic clove. Puree with a hand blender until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Use the avocado mayonnaise immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge
  • Peel the red onion and cut into thin round slices.
  • In a small saucepan, bring the apple cider vinegar, water, sugar and salt to the boil. Stir until the sugar and salt have completely dissolved. Add optional spices. Place the thin onion slices in a clean glass or preserving jar. Pour the hot vinegar mixture over the onions until they are completely covered. Close the jar and leave to cool. The red onion pickles should be ready to eat within a few hours, but they taste best if they are left to marinate overnight in the fridge.
  • Bring the water to the boil in a pan and soak the eggs for 6 minutes. Rinse, peel and set aside.
  • To serve, place 2 tablespoons of avocado mayonnaise per portion on a plate and place 2 egg halves on top. Sprinkle with a small pinch of paprika, add sea salt to the yolks and then drape 1 or 2 small slices of pickled onion next to them. Garnish with chili and coriander.
