Egg Sandwiches without Mayonnaise | Sri Lankan classic egg sandwiches #aasairasai #srilankanfood

mayonnaise

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

green chilies

🥗Healthier: jalapeños

💰Cheaper: bell peppers

Jalapeños provide heat while bell peppers add crunch without spice.

Put the eggs in cold tap water and boil them for about 10 minutes, covered and on high heat.

While the eggs are boiling, chop the frozen green chilies finely and then give them a rough chop.

Check the eggs; the water should be at a rolling boil for the next few minutes.

After boiling, place the eggs in a bowl of cold tap water to cool them down quickly.

Once cooled, peel the eggs and rinse them in cold water to remove any shell fragments.

Mash the eggs with a fork until they look grainy and uniform in size.

Add half of the chopped green chilies to the mashed eggs, along with salt, black pepper, and yellow mustard.

Incorporate about 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter into the egg mixture to achieve a spreadable consistency.

Spread the egg mixture evenly on slices of bread, focusing on the middle area and not taking it to the edges.

Cut off the crusts of the bread slices gently to maintain a fluffy look, and then cut the sandwiches into quarters or halves as preferred.
