Egg salad recipe from Morocco

The egg salad recipe is easy and unique. The food combination of this cold appetizer is smart too: The lemon juice makes the boiled eggs amazingly refreshing.

Easy appetizer recipe

Bright yellow of North Africa's sun

As usual with such unpretentious recipes, use the best eggs and the best lemons you can buy. It's the only way to uncover and enjoy the full potencial of such simple Mediterranean diet recipes like this egg salad recipe.

The bright color is also a distinctive feature of this Arabic easy appetizer recipe. Great as a party appetizer recipe as well!

If you like uniformity, use an egg slicer, otherwise use a knife to cut the egg into slices. As you can see in the picture, I sliced them with a knife. It's a matter of personal preference.

Ingredients for this egg salad recipe

Serves 4 as appetizer

  • 4 eggs
  • 3 cloves garlicpeeled and minced
  • The juice of 2 lemonsfreshly pressed
  • 5 sprigs flat parsleyleaves minced
  • 5 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Egg salad recipe preparation method

Preparation time: 10 minutes.
Cooking time: 5 minutes.

  1. Boil the eggs in shell for 5 minutes.

    • If the eggs are very big, increase the cooking time 2 or 3 minutes. Don't cook the eggs much longer or they will become too dry and too tough.

  2. In the meantime, peel the garlic cloves. Combine garlic and salt in a mortar and pound them into a fine paste with the pestle. Add the lemon juice and mix well.

  3. Mince the garlic leaves in a small cup or glass with the scissors upside down.

  4. Remove the eggs from the heat and briefly run tap cold water over them. As soon as you can hold them with your hands, peel them. It's much easier to peel them when they are still warm.

  5. Slice the boiled eggs with a knife or an egg slicer and place them in a bowl. Add the garlic and lemon paste and mix.

  6. Pour the olive oil, scatter the minced parsley and mix well but gently.

  7. Serve at room temperature or a little bit cooled
