It's cheap, relatively easy to make, very tasty and unusual. The
base of crunchy red pepper is so simple to make but it adds colour and
the texture of the eggs is a perfect accompaniment.

Boil the eggs for 12 minutes. Remove the egg shells and allow to
cool. Halve the eggs lengthwise and remove the yolks.
Be careful not
to break the egg whites - we used a blunt knife to gently ease the
yolks out of the whites. |
 |
Mix the yolks with the spring onions, mayonnaise, both mustards
and salt and pepper. Use a fork to blend the mixture very well.
Spoon the mixture back into the egg whites. Sprinkle lightly with
paprika and garnish with capers. |

|
Halve the red peppers,
remove all the white pith and seeds. Slice the red peppers into thin
strips cutting off any curved ends so the strips are nearly flat. Click
the picture on the left to enlarge it. Arrange the strips of rep
pepper on a plate and place the eggs on top. |
