1

Place 3 eggs into a pot and cover them with water, ensuring there's at least 2 cm (about an inch) of water above the eggs.

Let the eggs sit out for a couple of minutes to reach room temperature before boiling.

Bring the water to a boil over medium heat and gently stir the eggs to ensure even cooking.

Set a timer for 5 minutes to achieve a soft to medium hard-boiled egg.

5

Once the timer goes off, cool the eggs in cold water for a minute or two before peeling them.

6

Mash the peeled eggs with a fork in a mixing bowl.

7

Add 2 tablespoons of whole egg mayonnaise to the mashed eggs and mix well.

8

Add 1 heaped teaspoon of curry powder and a tiny bit of mild paprika to the mixture and combine thoroughly.

9

Divide the egg mixture between three pieces of bread, optionally seasoning with salt and pepper.
