Few ingredients for a delicious egg salad
For four people, I used six large eggs. These were washed and boiled in cold water, for about ten minutes, from the beginning of boiling the water.
We still need spring onions and chives, for a more delicate aroma.
And the last ingredient is a little sunflower oil. I did not use olive oil because it has a much stronger taste, and I do not want to feel too much the taste of the oil.
In Transylvanian cuisine, in old recipes, pork lard was used instead of sunflower oil. The egg salad became much creamier and with a special taste.
Well, let’s get to work!
After the eggs are hard-boiled and cooled, we clean them from the peel.
The next step is to rub the eggs against a grater, into the bowl. I used a cheese grater, but whoever wants it can finely chop the eggs.
We also finely chop the spring onions and the chives.
Mix the salad
We put the finely chopped spring onion in a bowl over the grated eggs.
Season with a teaspoon of sea salt, a teaspoon of freshly ground pepper, and half of the chopped chives.
We pour about 50 ml of sunflower oil and gently mix the salad until the oil is completely incorporated.
If necessary add a little oil until the salad is homogeneous and creamy.
Sprinkle over the remaining chopped chives and the salad is ready.
I recommend putting the egg salad in the fridge for 10-15 minutes so that the flavours are homogenized.

All we need is a slice of fresh bread and a good spoonful of egg salad.
Can be consumed with tomatoes or as I did with cheese stuffed with pickled pepper.
