Ingredients:
6 dragon's eggs (or hens' eggs if you don't have a dragon's cave in your neighbourhood) |
food coloring, diluted (optional) |
1 bunch fresh parsley |
1 bunch fresh coriander |
1 bunch fresh tarragon |
fresh herb, as desired (but please no marijuana – puff gave up that stuff in the 1970s) |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
white wine or grape juice (just enough to thin the mayonnaise a little) |
paprika (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Hard-boil the eggs (2 hours for dragons eggs, 12 minutes for hens eggs).
2. While the eggs are boiling, mix the mayonnaise and wine and put in the fridge to chill.
3. Run the cooked eggs under very cold running water until they are cool, and then tap them gently all over (using a hammer for dragons eggs, or a kitchen spoon for hens eggs).
4. Carefully remove the shells from the eggs and, if desired, dip them in food colouring.
5. The eggs now need a nest if you were unable to steal some of the dragons nest, you can make your own by lining a nice basket or shallow serving bowl with the fresh herbs.
6. Place the eggs in the nest and spoon the mayonnaise mixture over them.
7. Sprinkle with paprika.
